Per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Warriors are dealing James Wiseman to the Detroit Pistons as a part of a three-team trade that also involves the Atlanta Hawks. In the deal, the Hawks would pick up Saddiq Bey.

Pistons receive:

    Warriors receive: 

  • Five second-round picks (via Hawks)
  • This season, Bey has transitioned from a starting lineup role to a reserve one, averaging 14.8 ppg, 4.7 rpg and 1.6 apg in 28.8 mpg, all of which were drop offs from his 2021-22 stats (16.1 ppg, 5.4 rpg, 2.8 apg). Wiseman has struggled with injuries throughout his time in Golden State and has played in 21 games for the team this season, averaging 6.9 ppg and 3.5 rpg and has not played in 17 of the team’s last 19 games.

    Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports reports the Pistons had interest in acquiring Hawks forward John Collins as well and showed interest in acquiring Bey since sometime in December.
