Detroit gave Williams a six-year, $78.5million contract last June after h𝓡e was fired by the Phoenix Suns following the 2022-23 season.

At the time, t𓃲he deal was✅ the richest ever for an NBA head coach.

Detroit, though, finished with the🌠 worst record in franchise history and set an NBA single-season record along the🐽 way when it lost 28 straight games after opening 2-1.

It’s been an eventful off-season for the Pistons, who hired New Orleans Pelicans general manager Trajan Langdon as president of basketball operations and fir♊ed general manager Troy Weaver.

Detroit also had no luck in the NBA Draft lottery after being tied with the Washington Wizards for the best odds to secure the No. 1 over🙈all 𓂃pick at 14 per cent.

The Atlanta Hawks won the lotte🥂ry despite🔯 having just a three per cent chance to win, and the Pistons fell back to the No. 5 selection.
