The Detroit Pistons might see some new faces on the sidelines among the coaching staff, as recent media reports suggest the addition of some former longtime NBA players and the departure of a respected analytics guru for the organization.
Rashard Lewis and Keith Bogans, who both had long tenures in the NBA, and were additions to the Pistons Summer League coaching staff this season, are finalizing deals to join the Pistons staff for the NBA season, according to Frank Isola.
It’s unclear if the Pistons are just adding to their bench of assistant coaches or if either Lewis or Bogans would be replacing someone, but there is another report that the New Orleans Pelicans are in hot pursuit of Detroit assistant coach Sammy Gelfand.
