Why did the Detroit Pistons sign Beno Udrih?

This signing by the Detroit Pistons comes after the training camp battle between Ray McCallum and Lorenzo Brown, effectively throwing all the work those two did with the team out the window in favour of bringing in a brand new player just days before the season.

For the Pistons to shake things up like this despite having two solid enough temporary backup point guards to choose from, you’d imagine Beno Udrih must offer a huge upgrade that is impossible to pass on.

However, based on last season’s stats the reality is Udrih is strikingly similar to McCallum, Brown and last year’s backup, Steve Blake.
