The Detroit Pistons have struggled for form recently and currently hold a 21-27 record. While the team is still in the hunt for a playoff place, The Detroit News is reporting that the Pistons may choose to deal a number of their best players before the deadline:

Throwing in the towel likely means dealing the expiring contracts of Reggie Bullock and Ish Smith, if they can find a taker. Senior adviser Ed Stefanski said this week on the Wired Pistons podcast that they’ve looked into the options for Bullock.

Bullock has been with Detroit since 2015, and he has started 40 times for the Pistons this season. The 27-year-old is averaging 12 points and 2.6 rebounds per game, although Bullock will become a free agent this summer, so the Pistons may feel pressured to trade him away before the trade deadline.
