The Pistons are in need of some size going down the stretch for the final months in the NBA season if they want to make the playoffs.

According to reports, the Pistons are working on a deal that would send PG Brandon Jennings and F Ersan Ilyasova to the Orlando Magic for 6'8" F Tobias Harris.

It was reported last summer the Pistons offered Harris a max deal.

If the reports are true, Harris could be the inside size the Pistons have needed when Andre Drummond is on the bench. On the season Harris is averaging 13.7 ppg with 7 rpg and two assists.

Jennings is in his last week of his contract and is averaging 6.8 ppg in 23 games played this season coming off an Achilles injury. Ilyasova is averaging 11.3 ppg and 5.4 rpg, he signed through next season, which is a team option.

The NBA trade deadline is Thursday.
