The Detroit Pistons have added a veteran point guard to increase their depth in the backcourt. According to Chris Haynes of ESPN, the Pistons and Jose Calderon have agreed to a one-year deal worth $2.4 million.

The 36-year-old Spaniard is in the twilight of his career. Consequently, he doesn't play big minutes anymore. He's more of an insurance policy to have on the bench. He played in 57 games for the Cleveland Cavaliers last season, starting in 32.

Those starts had a lot to do with the void left in the wake of the Kyrie Irving trade. Once the playoffs came around, Calderon fell out of the rotation completely. He played a handful of meaningful minutes in the Cavaliers' first-round series against the Pacers, but he was benched soon after Indiana was dispatched.

Perhaps Calderon can provide some veteran leadership. He has put together an impressive 13-year career with stops in Toronto, Dallas, New York, Los Angeles, and Cleveland. In fact, this will be his second stint in Detroit. During the 2012-13 season, Calderon played in 28 games for the Pistons after being traded from Toronto.

Calderon averaged 11.6 points and 6.6 assists per game while shooting above 50 percent from the field. The Pistons are getting a much different Calderon in 2018-19 than they did in 2012-13.

All in all, this isn't a big risk for Detroit. A one-year deal is likely the best that Calderon can expect, and at $2.4 million, the Pistons aren't investing big money.
