Gianluca Pascucci has joined the Pistons front office, according to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link ).
Pascucci spent last season as a Bulls scout after a stint as assistant GM with the Timberwolves. He left Minnesota in May 2022 after the organization decided not to pick up its option on his contract.
Pistons first-year president of basketball operations Trajan Langdon previously worked with Pascucci in the Nets’ front office.
Pascucci joins several other hires this summer in Detroit’s revamped front office. Former Mavericks executive Dennis Lindsey was brought in to be their senior VP of basketball operations and former Pelicans executive Michael Blackstone was added as an executive VP of basketball operations.
They also hired former Nets director of player personnel J.R. Holden in an executive role.
