The Pistons originally acquired Joseph from the Sacramento Kings this past March in a deal that saw Delon Wright go the other way. In 19 games (11 starts) with Detroit following his arrival, he averaged 12 points, 5.5 assists and 3.2 rebounds per game.
Lyles, who was drafted 12 overall by the Utah Jazz in 2015, has suited up for the Jazz along with the Denver Nuggets and San Antonio Spurs. He’s averaged 7.3 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game in 374 career NBA contests.
