Auburn Hills — A day after their owner said they didn’t need any more players, the Pistons went ahead and drafted one Thursday night.
And then they drafted another.
So maybe Tom Gores was getting ahead of himself when he said the Pistons were content to stand pat with the roster Dwane Casey inherited as head coach. Or maybe it’s just best that he delegates the basketball operations to guys with a better handle on things.
Either way, the Pistons did manage to help themselves in Thursday’s NBA Draft, and even the new guy in charge of the front office, veteran executive Ed Stefanski, wasn’t sure that’d be the case going in.
