Pistons part ways with Troy Weaver

We knew he was in the hot seat in recent days and The Athletic made the news official: Troy Weaver is no longer the general manager (GM) Pistons. The first strong decision of the mandate of Trajan Langdon, named president of the franchise last week, after having been the architect of the Pelicans.

In four seasons at the head of Detroit, Troy Weaver never managed to make the necessary adjustments to bring his team back to the playoffs. Worse: this one only displays… 23% of victories (!) since 2020–21, with three 15th places in the East in four years, and a double “record” of draws this year: only 14 successes in 82 matches, but above all 28 consecutive defeats…

Arriving from Oklahoma City, where he was Sam Presti's right-hand man, Troy Weaver was unable to revive the Pistons with his Draft choices, even though he was often able to select in the Top 10, with Killian Hayes (2020), Cade Cunningham (2021) and others Jaden Ivey (2022) or Ausar Thompson (2023). While waiting to see which player will now be selected by the franchise during the 2024 Draft, with the 5th choice.
