While the acquisition of Gary Payton II headlined trade deadline day for the Golden State Warriors, Bob Myers and Steve Kerr made another move to deal former No. 2 overall James Wiseman to the Detroit Pistons in a four-team trade.
After Payton II’s failed physical delayed the trade process, Wiseman wasn’t able to make his debut with the Pistons until Wednesday. In his first game alongside his new teammates, Wiseman notched double-figures with 11 points on 5-of-9 shooting from the field with five rebounds in 24 minutes off the bench against the Boston Celtics.
Following his Detroit debut, his former teammate took to Instagram with a reaction. Draymond Green shared a picture of Wiseman on his Instagram story with a message for the 21-year-old center.

“Go be a star.”
