Pistons Look To Bolster Backcourt?

Joe Dumars is considering ways to add depth to the Pistons’ backcourt.

As of Monday, Detroit’s roster lists Brandon Knight, Rodney Stuckey, Will Bynum and rookie Kim English as the team's only guards.

“I would feel comfortable (with the status quo), but it’s something we’re trying to address, as well,” Dumars said. “We continue to look to shuffle one or two spots on our roster to give it more balance.”

Dumars has reason to believe teams are looking to make trades between now and the opening of training camp.

“I do get the sense that there are more teams trying to impact their rosters through the month of August, which historically has been a slow period,” he said. “In the conversations I’m having and the amount of teams I’m talking to in what is a traditionally slow time, it’s not that right now. For whatever reason, I don’t know, but it is the case. I wouldn’t be surprised to see more moves happen.”
