Auburn Hills — The Pistons might not be done with their roster tinkering, even though Thursday’s NBA trade deadline has passed. They could be looking at some options in the other market, with players who are free agents or were bought out of their contracts.

That second group has some interesting names, including wing Wayne Ellington, who was traded Wednesday, along with Tyler Johnson, from the Miami Heat to the Phoenix Suns. The Suns waived Ellington on Thursday, making him a free agent.

It won’t be an easy path for the Pistons, though.
