The Pistons have interest in Jason Collins, according to ESPN. Collins, who became the NBA's first openly gay active player, also drew interest from the Nets earlier this summer. ESPN calls the Pistons' interest in Collins "exploratory," but Detroit makes senses as a landing spot for the veteran center. Collins, 34, could provide some solid veteran leadership to the Pistons' young frontcourt duo of Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond while also offering a defensive post presence on limited minutes.
