Active rosters 15 players (plus two two-way contracts for players destined to play most of their season with the Grand Rapids Drive in the G League)

My Guess = Pierre Jackson and Hollis Thompson

I doubt it happens, but I'd love to get James Young on one of these deals. Still only 21 yrs old, came out too early and buried on deep Celtics squad. He's from Flint - maybe if he's not getting NBA roster offers he'd "come home" to play.

Pierre Jackson signed with Maccabi Tel Aviv.

And to add to that Jackson is getting $1 million from Tel Aviv. He's pretty familiar with the overseas game too since he's spent a good amount of time playing in Europe.

G/F Luis Montero and C Landry Nnoko were the two two-way players signed by the Pistons.

Nnoko isn't on a two-way, he's partially guaranteed. Basically we sign him to a league minimum deal with $100K guaranteed and then cut him last day of camp and then send him to Grand Rapids as an affiliate player, which is different than the two-way player contracts.
