Sasser's strong shooting and defensive skills make him a potential replacement for Hayes, who is in the final year of his contract and may become trade bait. However, Sasser's ability to play both guard spots means he could also share the court with Hayes and provide a tenacious defensive backcourt off the bench. The Pistons have options and can let training camp competition determine the bench players' roles.
