Knight, who returned to the Pistons as part of the Drummond deal, remembers the day vividly and would have preferred to hear it from Dumars, who engineered the trade for the Pistons. Now 28, he understands how the sausage is made. “A lot of times with these trades and what we have to understand as players, not saying whether it’s right or wrong, they happen quickly so it’s tough to say we’re not trading you and then something develops quickly, and you try to inform the player, it’s almost impossible,” Knight said.
