Pistons cut Gary Harris loose after summer trade haul

Detroit has waived guard Gary Harris, Michael Scotto reports for HoopsHype. Harris arrived in the six-team trade that also brought John Collins to the Pistons and sent Khris Middleton to Washington.

He shot a career-low 2.7 points per game with Milwaukee last season despite hitting 41.2% from three. The move settles a roster battle with Taurean Prince for Detroit's 14th spot, with the Jalen Duren restricted free agency situation still unresolved.
