English was released by the Pistons on Thursday, the Detroit Free Press' Vincent Ellis reports.

English was drafted with the 44th overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft and didn't make an impression in his rookie season. He played in 41 games with the Pistons, averaging 9.9 minutes, 2.9 points, 0.9 rebounds, and 0.6 assists, while shooting 38 percent from the field and 28 percent from beyond the arc. English will likely catch on elsewhere to compete for a roster spot in training camp.
