The Detroit Pistons acquired veteran guard Kemba Walker from the New York Knicks as part of a three-team trade involving the Charlotte Hornets that also saw the Pistons acquire the draft rights to Jalen Duren on Thursday night.

Walker and the Pistons are expected to discuss a contract buyout that will allow him to become a free agent, sources told Wojnarowski.

The Knicks traded a 2023 Denver Nuggets conditional first-round pick that they received from the Oklahoma City Thunder earlier on Thursday, plus four second-round picks, to the Hornets for the rights to Duren, the Memphis center who was picked No.
