The Detroit Pistons have claimed big man Christian Wood off waivers, league sources told The Athletic's Shams Charania.

The New Orleans Pelicans waived the 23-year-old on Monday.

A 6-foot-10 power forward, Wood impressed down the stretch last season, averaging 16.9 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks in just 23.6 minutes per game over eight appearances with the Pelicans.
