The Detroit Pistons announced today that they have recalled Cheikh Samb from the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBA Development League.
In two games (both starts), Samb averaged 13.5 points, 9.5 assists and 4.0 blocks in 31.5 minutes with the Mad Ants.
Are they going to put him on the active list (once his teeth heal)? Otherwise, I don’t see the point of recalling him to have him sit and watch when he could be getting game seasoning with the Mad Ants.
That sucks for the 3-6 Mad Ants. They lose the D-League’s top scorer, Jeremy Richardson, to the Grizzlies and now Samb who was solid in his short time down there. He could have probably helped them win a couple of games.
