The Detroit Pistons signed Ben Wallace to a contract today.
This might not seem like a big deal considering the way his game has slipped in recent years, but it’s a nice move for the Pistons.
They are paying him the veteran’s minimum, so it’s almost like getting a player for free. And maybe his intensity and grittiness will rub off on the younger big men.
If nothing else, it gives him a chance to retire as a Piston. That’s how it should be.
