February 6, 2019 Johnson, 22, has been a letdown for the Pistons since they drafted him eighth overall in 2015. He's averaging 7.5 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.3 assists while shooting just 38.1 percent from the field in 48 games this season.
The 21-year-old Maker is a 7'1 center who has also been a disappointment since he was drafted tenth overall in 2016 NBA. He's averaging 4.7 points and 2.7 rebounds while playing just 11 minutes per game this season.
Thursday's trade deadline comes at 3 p.m. ETD.
