At least one team may want to deal for Markelle Fultz.
The Pistons are interested in acquiring the 20-year-old guard, according to a report from the Detroit Free Press, which cites an unidentified league source. Fultz was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome earlier this month and is expected to miss three to six weeks.
Fultz has averaged 8.2 points and 3.1 assists in 19 appearances in 2018-19.
Fultz was the top pick in the 2017 draft and began his career with high expectations. But he also dealt with injuries as well as a hitch in his jump shot during his rookie season and was limited to 14 games.
The second-year guard has shot just 41.4 percent from the field and 26.7 percent from 3-point range in 33 career games.
The Pistons will host the Celtics on Saturday. They’ll enter that game with a 13-13 record.
