Maybe the Pistons won’t have to wait until the frenzy in free agency dies down before they make a move.
The Pistons are not only showing interest in — but also appear to be “emerging as the favorite” to sign — former league MVP Derrick Rose, according to a report by The Athletic’s Frank Isola on Saturday.
Rose, 30, had a resurgent year with the Timberwolves, averaging 18 points, 4.3 assists and 2.7 rebounds last season, including 13 starts. He’s coming off a minimum contract, worth $2.
