11:33am: The move is official, tweets Omari Sankofa II of The Detroit Free Press.
8:16am: The Pistons will waive swingman Dzanan Musa, a source tells Rod Beard of The Detroit News.
Musa will still earn $2,002,800 for the season as Detroit had 16 players in camp with guaranteed contracts. His $3,615,054 team option for 2021/22 will be voided unless he’s claimed on waivers.
The move will bring the roster down to 15 players on standard contracts, although Detroit still has an open two-way slot.
Musa was acquired from the Nets last month in a three-team trade that also brought Rodney McGruder and the draft rights to Saddiq Bey, the 19th pick this year. Musa spent two years in Brooklyn and averaged 4.8 points and 2.2 rebounds in 40 games last season.
