Pistons Rumors: 'No Looming' Front Office Changes amid 22-game Losing Streak

Mike ChiariDec 16, 2023

The Detroit Pistons reportedly aren't planning any imminent changes to their front office despite their struggles this season.

According to James L. Edwards III of The Athletic, sources have said there is "no looming decision" regarding front office personnel even though the Pistons are in the midst of a franchise-record 22-game losing streak.

However, Edwards noted that "anything is on the table" if the losing streak stretches into the new year.

With a record of 2-23, the Pistons are the worst team in the NBA this season, and they have not won a game since Oct. 28 when they beat the Chicago Bulls 118-102 to improve to 2-1 at the time.

The Pistons are in the midst of their first season under head coach Monty Williams after Dwane Casey served in that role for the previous five seasons.

Detroit has not reached the playoffs since Casey's first season in 2018-19, and they have won 23 or fewer games in every season since then, including going just 17-65 last season.

Troy Weaver has been the Pistons' general manager since the end of the 2019-20 season, and during his time at the helm, Detroit has gone a combined 62-199.

Weaver had a significant hand in drafting and trading for a lot of young talent, including Cade Cunningham, Jalen Duren, Jaden Ivey, Ausar Thompson, Isaiah Stewart and Marcus Sasser, but it has not translated to team success.

The Pistons are trending heavily toward having the best odds to secure the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NBA draft, and while there aren't necessarily any generational talents available, adding a player like French center Alexandre Sarr of Colorado forward Cody Williams would stock Detroit's cupboards even more.

Also, the Pistons have some veterans who could be attractive to contending teams, such as Bojan Bogdanović and Alec Burks, which Detroit can use to acquire more draft capital.

At some point, so many high draft picks have to translate into winning basketball, and if that doesn't happen soon, it is fair to wonder if the Pistons may choose to move on from Weaver.
