High: Ersan Ilyasova Trade

On June 11, the Pistons acquired power forward Ersan Ilyasova for Caron Butler and Shawne Williams. Williams is not currently in the NBA and Butler has only played in nine games this season, and twice in the month of December. Meanwhile, Ilyasova has started every game for the Pistons as their power forward.

Ilyasova has been the embodiment of what Pistons basketball is about: grind and hustle. He is leading the team in three-point percentage, hitting 36.8 percent of his three-pointers. Ilyasova has become a fan favorite at The Palace and was acquired for two spare parts.
