The Pistons have officially issued a press release to confirm that three previously reported roster moves have been finalized. Those roster moves are as follows:
- Promoted Stanley Umude to a standard contract (story)
- Signed Buddy Boeheim to a two-way contract (story)
- Signed Tosan Evbuomwan to a two-way contract (story)
All three transactions were reported on Thursday, but Evbuomwan’s 10-day contract with Detroit was still active through last night’s game in Indiana, so the team waited an extra day for it to expire before essentially swapping his and Umude’s spots on the 18-man roster. Boeheim’s two-way deal was completed at the same time.
The Pistons now have a full squad, with Umude taking the 15th spot on the standard roster while Evbuomwan and Boeheim join Jared Rhoden as Detroit’s two-way players.
A player who signs a two-way contract during the season is subject to a prorated portion of the usual 50-game limit, so Evbuomwan and Boeheim will each be eligible to be active for up to 15 of the team’s remaining NBA games this season.
