AUBURN HILLS, MI (AP) --
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) - Will Bynum had the Detroit Pistons
pick up his team option for next season after emerging as a
reliable scoring threat off the bench.
The Pistons announced the decision on Wednesday.
The 6-foot Bynum appeared in 57 games last season, averaging 7.2
points, 1.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists. He scored a career-high 32
against Charlotte earlier this month, including a franchise-record
26 points in the fourth quarter.
The Pistons signed Bynum in July after he played for Maccabi Tel
Aviv of the Israeli League.
The former Georgia Tech star played 15 games for the Golden
State Warriors during 2005-06, but spent most of the season in the
NBA Development League.
