Unless the Pistons can pull off a trade involving Ronald Dupree by Monday night - which at this point, seems unlikely - Detroit will waive the 6-foot-7 forward in order to get their roster down to the NBA-maximum of 15 players.

Billups said neither player had shown signs of worry or concern about their future.
"You would never know they were fighting for their life right now," Billups said. "They're just regular, playing as hard as everyone else hoping for the best."
