The Detroit Pistons have waived Romeo Weems effective September 25. The departure is official and complete: the forward is off Detroit's roster and has no confirmed destination.
An official move on the same day as his signing
NBA.com's player movement log lists the waiver, while RotoWire confirms that Weems signed a training camp contract with the Pistons before being released later that day. This is not a trade or a departure still awaiting official confirmation.
Detroit did not disclose the length or financial terms of that agreement and has not announced a reason for the decision. The verified scope of the move is therefore limited to his effective removal from the NBA roster.
The profile leaving the roster
Weems is a 25-year-old, 6-foot-7 forward who played at DePaul, went undrafted in 2021 and has spent most of his professional career in the G League. He brings size on the wing, defensive activity and rebounding support, but his brief stay with Detroit never developed into an established rotation role.
What changes for Detroit and Weems
The waiver removes Weems from the Pistons' roster before the season and frees one place in the franchise's working group. Because he was signed and waived on the same day, Detroit is not losing an established part of its 2026/27 rotation.
Weems' next step remains open. Until another move becomes official, his status should be treated strictly as a departure from Detroit, without assigning him to a new team.
