The Detroit Pistons hope to announce in the two weeks the Detroit location of their potential new corporate headquarters and practice facility, city officials said Thursday.
The revelation came during a Detroit City Council committee meeting, which was the next step in getting the deal approved to have the Pistons play in Little Caesars Arena next season.
“We were supposed to announce the location yesterday,” Tom Lewand, a key member of Mayor Mike Duggan’s administration, told the council subcommittee. But it was delayed by the death of Mike Ilitch, co-founder of Little Caesars Pizza and owner of the Detroit Tigers and Detroit Red Wings.
