FRIDAY, 9:20am: The signing is official, the team announced via press release.
THURSDAY, 11:06am: The Pistons intend to ink Lorenzo Brown to a 10-day contract, Shams Charania of The Vertical on Yahoo Sports reports (Twitter link). Detroit has an available roster slot so no additional move would be required to bring Brown into the fold.
Brown rejoined the Pistons’ D-League affiliate after his second 10-day contract with the Suns expired and Phoenix elected not to sign him for the remainder of the season. In 25 appearances for the Drive this season Brown is averaging 18.3 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists in 33.3 minutes per contest. His shooting line in the D-League is .503/.352/.860.
The point guard didn’t see much burn for the Suns during his time with the team, appearing in eight games and notching 2.9 points, 0.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 7.6 minutes of action per night. His slash line for Phoenix was .320/.125/.750.
Other than to get another practice body, I don’t see any significance to this signing. Dinwiddie and Meeks have been battling injuries, so it gives Detroit another guard on the practice court.
