Well, we got the Woj Bomb we’ve all been waiting on:
The Detroit Pistons have hired Grizzlies executive Ed Stefanski as a senior advisor responsible for overhauling the franchise’s basketball operations, league sources told ESPN. Stefanski will assess the current front office, and oversee the process of hiring a GM and coach.

Ed Stefanski is definitely an ... uninspiring choice, as he oversaw mediocrity in Philadelphia, New Jersey (when the Brooklyn Nets were in New Jersey), and Memphis. He was spoken of glowingly by former Pistons coach Michael Curry in a piece by the Free Press’ Vince Ellis this past week (take that with as many grains of salt as you would like), though, and has extensive ties in and around the league.
Now, presumably, the Pistons’ search moves on to a general manager and a head coach - and Woj also had something for Pistons fans on that front as well:
Former Toronto Raptors coach Dwane Casey will be a primary target of the Pistons coaching search, league sources tell ESPN. Full story soon on site. https://t.co/GpB9Qs9qXt
