DETROIT >> The Detroit Pistons have landed one of the league’s most reliable scorers and playmakers in free agent Caris LeVert, a source confirmed to The Detroit News on Monday.

The Pistons and LeVert, the former Michigan star, agreed on a two-year deal.

Known for his scoring and playmaking abilities, LeVert, 30, joins the Pistons as a seasoned veteran with 10 years of experience, having played a productive role for every team he has been with throughout his career. He most recently helped the Atlanta Hawks reach the play-in tournament following the team’s acquisition from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

LeVert appeared in 26 games for the Hawks, averaging 14.9 points on 48.2% shooting from the field and 3.0 assists. He began his career as a first-round pick of the Indiana Pacers in 2016. He has averaged 14.0 points and 4.0 assists through 524 career games.

LeVert signed a two-year, $32 million contract with Cleveland in July 2023 before the trade to Atlanta in February.

The Pistons also have reached an agreement to bring back big man Paul Reed.

Reed, 26, and the Pistons agreed on a two-year deal worth $11 million. A source close to negotiations confirmed Reed’s signing to The Detroit News. ESPN was the first to report.

Reed provided the Pistons with reliable play throughout the 2024-25 season. He appeared in 45 regular-season games, averaging 4.1 points per game and 2.7 rebounds. However, his most significant contributions came during the Pistons’ first-round playoff series against the New York Knicks.

In the absence of Isaiah Stewart due to a knee injury, Reed averaged 10.6 minutes while averaging 3.0 rebounds and a steal against the Knicks.

“We were fortunate that we had Paul,” president of basketball operations Trajan Langdon said after the season. “I think if we didn’t have a guy as talented as Paul, another player would not have been able to hold water like Paul did for us at that time.”

Reed originally joined the Pistons after the Philadelphia 76ers waived him in July. He spent four seasons with the 76ers, where he appeared in 215 games.

The 76ers drafted Reed in the second round in 2020. Reed’s best moment with the 76ers came in March 2024, when he recorded a career-best 30 points and 13 rebounds in a loss to the Denver Nuggets. Reed’s deal marked the Pistons’ first roster move during free agency.
