McGrady Now A Piston

While the Chicago Bulls held some interest in Tracy McGrady, there wasn’t much interest elsewhere – until now.

According to the Associated Press, the Detroit Pistons have aigned the seven-time All-Star to a one-year contract; according to an anonymous source, McGrady will make $1.3 million this season, presumably the league’s veteran minimum.

Detroit plans to utilize McGrady in their rotation of wing players, including Richard Hamilton, Ben Gordon, Austin Daye and Charlie Villanueva. That right there makes me wonder which of the aforementioned players is either released or traded outright as that seems to be a glut of players for the 2 and/or 3 spot on the floor.
