The Detroit Pistons plan on pursuing Tim Connelly to run their front office, sources tell James L. Edwards III and Shams Charania of The Athletic.

Connelly is expected to opt out of his contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves even if he intends to stay with the franchise. Connelly is considered likely to return to the Wolves, but an offer from the Pistons worth approximately $15 million per season could sway the decision.

The Wolves hired Connelly away from the Denver Nuggets in 2022, but he has an opt-out this offseason.

The Milwaukee Bucks denied permission from the Pistons to interview Jon Horst for the job.

Would be pretty funny if Connelly ditches Minnesota after he gave up all their picks for Rudy Gobert effectively stunting their ability to improve the roster any further lol

If there's any better time to leave for Connelly it's probably right now.
