Joe has improved his stats in each of his six NBA seasons, topping out at a career-best 11.1 points per game last season while shooting 42.3% on 3-pointers — a percentage that ranked 10th among players with at least 200 3-point attempts.
He was No. 30 in the NBA in 3-pointers made (181) and joins the Pistons, who won an Eastern Conference-leading 60 games and reached the Eastern Conference semifinals. In Detroit, he’ll play alongside All-NBA guard Cade Cunningham and join a team that features capable 3-point shooters in Duncan Robinson (41% on 3-pointers), Daniss Jenkins (37.4%) and others.
The Thunder continue to shake up their roster as well. The trade of Joe comes days after OKC dealt Aaron Wiggins to the Hawks for two future second-round picks. Wiggins, a member of Oklahoma City’s championship team in 2024-25, averaged 9.4 ppg on 43.1% shooting last season.
