The Detroit Pistons fired 15 employees two weeks ago, a person familiar with the situation told the Associated Press.

From the AP. The timing suggests this is a direct result of the lockout, but it's at least possible it's the result of Tom Gores/Platinum Equity cleaning house, which presumably would have happened regardless of the league's labor situation.
