The Pistons are making progress in their search for a general manager, which began two weeks ago. They initially had a short list of candidates and this week there are three who have emerged as front-runners to join the Pistons.
According to Marc Stein of the New York Times, Troy Weaver, who is the vice president of basketball operations for the Oklahoma City Thunder, has emerged as the top choice. Weaver, 51, has been involved in the Thunder’s day-to-day operations as an assistant general manager, along with a say in their moves in the draft and free agency.
