The Pistons have re-signed shooting guard Hamidou Diallo to a two-year contract, agents Thad Foucher and Joe Smith told Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
The deal is worth a total of $10.4 million, Wojnarowski added.
Diallo, 23, is 6-foot-5 and averaged 11.2 points and 5.4 rebounds in 20 appearances last season. Before that, he spent 32 games with the Thunder, averaging 11.9 points.
He was a restricted free agent, and Pistons general manager Troy Weaver signaled at the end of the season that Diallo would be retained.

“Diallo’s agreement means the Pistons roster has 16 guaranteed contracts now, one above the limit to start the regular season,” Wojnarowski wrote.
Diallo joins a young and promising backcourt in Detroit that also includes No. 1 overall pick Cade Cunningham, Killian Hayes, guard/forward Josh Jackson, Frank Jackson, Saben Lee and veteran Rodney McGruder.
