For the Pistons, it meant shipping out a player who never quite fit for cap space and some second round picks. For the Hornets, it means two late picks and a big man who is an excellent passer.
And since their best player now is LaMelo Ball, who is a brilliant passer, that’s great for Plumlee because good passing is contagious.
Not that he has any guarantees.
