HOUSTON -- A pair of trade-deadline deals were undone Monday when the Detroit Pistons voided a swap with the Houston Rockets, multiple sources told ESPN.com.
Power forward Donatas Motiejunas failed a physical with the Pistons due to back problems, sources said.
In the process, the Pistons will keep their 2016 first-round pick and Marcus Thornton and Motiejunas will return to the Rockets. Joel Anthony, who was traded from the Pistons to the Rockets, who in turned sent him and a second-round pick to the Philadelphia 76ers for the rights to Nigerian forward Chukwudiebere Maduabum, comes back to Detroit.
