VIDEO: Awkward Moment Caught on Camera As Traded Marvin Bagley and Isiah Livers Bid Goodbye to Pistons Teammates

On Sunday, the Detroit Pistons and Washington Wizards engaged in a multi-player trade. The agreement involves Marvin Bagley III, Isaiah Livers, and two second-round draft picks (2025 and 2026) heading to Washington, while Danilo Gallinari and Mike Muscala go to Detroit. ESPN initially reported the trade details. Bagley, selected as the No. 2 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, maintains an average of 10.2 points in 18.4 minutes per game and is in the second season of a three-year, $37.5 million contract.

Livers averages five points per game and would have become a restricted free agent after this season. This trade enables Detroit to create cap space for the upcoming offseason, potentially reaching up to $60 million under the cap. In a recent post on X (formerly known as Twitter), the two players are seen murmuring to each other about their trade.

James L Edwards III who posted the video remarks on the ‘awkward’ moment caught on camera writing, “Weird business … Livers and Bagley telling their teammates they’ve been traded.”

Both teams party to the trade have dismal records in the Eastern Conference. The Pistons won just three games of the last 36 games they played with the worst record in the league. Meanwhile, the Wizards are not doing well either being the 14th seed in the east, and have only 7 games this season. For the Pistons, things became especially nasty went their crowd started chatting about something unexpected.

“Sell the team,” say Pistons fans

The Pistons took to their home court with an unfavorable record, determined to redeem themselves. They began the game with intensity, establishing a significant lead in the first quarter. Despite Cade Cunningham’s remarkable 41-point performance, making him the first Pistons player with multiple 40+ point games in a month since Jerry Stackhouse in 2001, the Nets managed to snatch a late lead. This resulted in frustrated home fans chanting “Sell the team.”

This isn’t the first instance of such discontent for the $3.1 billion team. In the previous home game against the Utah Jazz, similar chants arose as the team suffered a defeat. The disappointment lingers for Cunningham, who expressed disbelief after the earlier home game loss. Do you think the Pistons can improve in the following years?
