Instead he signed a one-year deal to play for Hapoel Jerusalem. "We think this can be a great opportunity for Rickey to continue to improve and to get experience at a professional level against talented players," vice president of operations John Hammond said Monday. "This can only make him a better player." The Pistons retain his rights, and expect Paulding, a 22-year-old swingman, to bid for a spot again in 11 months, during summer league play. It wasn't so much that he didn't impress this time around as it was a case of there being no room.</div> <div align="center">Link</div> Also in the article, Joe Dumars indicated that he may be looking to relocate Elden Campbell.
This is good for Paulding, this should really polish his game and make him a lot better like, this will hopefully have the same effect on it like it did on Ginobili.
