Killian Hayes played in 42 games (31 starts) for the Detroit Pistons this season.

The 22-year-old averaged 6.9 points, 2.8 rebounds and 4.9 assists per contest while shooting 41.3% from the field and 29.7% from the three-point range.

However, the Pistons waived Hayes earlier this month, and he is currently a free agent that is available to be signed by any team in the league.

Hayes had been in his fourth season in the NBA (all with the Pistons).

His career averages are 8.1 points, 2.9 rebounds and 5.2 assists per contest while shooting 38.2% from the field and 27.7% from the three-point range in 210 regular season games.

The Pistons struggled during his tenure with the franchise, so he has yet to appear in an NBA playoff game.
