The Detroit Pistons are set to formally request an interview with Jon Horst for their vacant president of basketball operations position, sources told Marc Stein of The Stein Line.

It is unknown whether the Bucks will grant the request.

The Pistons have also been linked with Tim Connelly and Scott Perry for the position. 

The Detroit Pistons are considering former New York Knicks general manager Scott Perry for their President of Basketball Operations role, sources told Ian Begley of SNY.

Perry, a Detroit native, worked in the Pistons' front office under Joe Dumars during the team's 2004 title season.

The Pistons are also interested in Tim Connelly, Dennis Lindsey, and JJ Redick. 

The Detroit Pistons would have interest in Tim Connelly as their new president of basketball operations should Connelly opt out of his contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves this offseason, according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line.

Connelly is currently in the second year of a five-year deal.

The Pistons are also interested in Dennis Lindsey, currently a Mavs consultant, for the role.

JJ Redick is also a name to monitor for the open position, sources told Stein.

The new president of basketball operations would make the final decision on Troy Weaver's future with the Pistons next season.

The Detroit Pistons could pursue Tobias Harris in free agency, sources tell Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer. The Pistons are attempting to accelerate their rebuild and could use a veteran presence on the wing.

Harris is coming off a five-year, $180 million contract with the Philadelphia 76ers. 

Pompey also writes that "Harris may be as good as gone" from the Sixers this offseason.

Harris was traded by the Orlando Magic to the Pistons in 2016 shortly after signing a four-year, $64 million deal. Harris was subsequently part of a 2018 trade to the Los Angeles Clippers for Blake Griffin. Harris was traded in 2019 to the Sixers.

The Detroit Pistons are believed to have interest in hiring Jon Horst as president of basketball operations. 

Horst won Executive of the Year in 2021 when the Milwaukee Bucks won the championship following their trade for Jrue Holiday.

Horst is a Michigan native and his first NBA job was with the Pistons.

Troy Weaver will remain with the Detroit Pistons as general manager despite the franchise's decision to hire a president of basketball operations above him.

Weaver was hired by the Pistons in 2020 after a lengthy tenure with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Pistons have not won more than 23 games during his tenure, winning 20 in 20-21, 23 in 21-22, 17 in 22-23 and 14 in 23-24.

The Detroit Pistons have decided to hire a new head of basketball operations following their 14-68 season.

Troy Weaver has run the Pistons' front office since June 2020.

Detroit hired Monty Williams as head coach last offseason and he's expected to be retained in the job.

Tom Gores is considering making changes to the front office of the Detroit Pistons.

One of those changes Gores is considering is hiring a president of basketball operations. That person would have final say in all basketball matters. The idea is to have complete organizational synergy from the top down.

For now, it appears that head coach Monty Williams will return next season. He's completing the first year of an eight-year contract worth up to $100 million. It's unclear what general manager Troy Weaver's role could be in a new front office structure.

The Detroit Pistons have agreed to sign Jaylen Nowell for the remainder of the season using an injury hardship exception.

Nowell has appeared in three games with the Pistons, averaging 8.7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 assist in 16.5 minutes over three games.

The Pistons play in their final game of the season on Sunday.

Monty Williams is not expected to be open to a buyout of his contract with the Detroit Pistons this offseason, sources told Jake Fischer of Yahoo! Sports.

Williams signed a six-year, $78.5 million deal with the Pistons before this season.

The Pistons, who lost a league record 28-straight games earlier this year, are currently in last place in the Eastern Conference.
