Zhaire Smith: Officially waived by Detroit

Smith was waived by the Pistons on Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Detroit acquired Smith from Philadelphia on Nov. 22, and the expectation all along was that he'd eventually be waived. The Pistons made it official Monday, parting ways with the 2018 first-round pick out of Texas Tech. Through two seasons, Smith has appeared in just 13 NBA games.
