Kevin Knox reportedly agrees to 2-year, $6 million deal with Detroit Pistons

Kevin Knox will have another opportunity to find a steady role in the NBA.

The former Kentucky Wildcat (2017-18) one-and-done has signed a two-year, $6 million deal to join the Detroit Pistons, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania. Knox was the No. 9 overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft by the New York Knicks but has experienced an up-and-down career since his rookie season.

He’ll team up in Detroit with his former Kentucky teammate Hamidou Diallo, who recently had his $5.2 million team option picked up by the franchise.
