Sidney Lowe has agreed to become an assistant to J.B. Bickerstaff with the Pistons, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN (Twitter link ). Lowe also worked for Bickerstaff during his time in Cleveland.
Lowe is the first reported hiring since the organization confirmed that Bickerstaff will be its new head coach on Wednesday. Bickerstaff took the job a little more than a month after being dismissed by the Cavaliers following a second-round playoff exit.
Lowe, 64, played for five NBA teams in seven years after winning an NCAA title at North Carolina State. He moved into coaching in 1991 and spent time with numerous organizations over the past three decades.
This will be his third stint in Detroit, where he served as an assistant during the 2005/06 season and again from 2018 to 2021.
