Reports: GM Weaver out amid Pistons shakeup

Troy Weaver is out as general manager of the Detroit Pistons amid a retooled front office led by Trajan Langdon, according to multiple reports Friday.

Detroit has had the NBA's worst record the past two seasons and won just 23% of its games over four years with Weaver in charge of basketball operations.

Langdon was hired by the New Orleans Pelicans as general manager in 2019, and they improved under him in each of the past five years, winning 49 games last season to trail the win total of only one team in franchise history.

The former Duke standout, who played in Cleveland for three seasons, previously was the Brooklyn Nets' assistant general manager.

Detroit hired Weaver nearly four years ago after he was with the Oklahoma City Thunder for 12 seasons, including three-plus years as vice president of basketball operations.

The Pistons announced in April that they were looking for new leadership after they finished 14-68, losing three more games than they did last season, and set an NBA single-season record with 28 consecutive losses.

Under Weaver, they were 74-244 overall and extended a postseason drought that dates to 2019.

Detroit did not have much luck in the draft lottery for the second straight season and will have the No. 5 pick for the third straight year.

The Pistons are trying to rebuild around Cade Cunningham, the No. 1 pick in 2021, to restore pride for a franchise that has won three NBA titles.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
