Anthony was waived Sunday by the Pistons, Vince Ellis of the Detroit Free Press reports.In order to clear room for the newly-signed Boban Marjanovic, who officially became a member of the Pistons on Sunday after the Spurs declined to match his three-year, $21 million offer sheet, Detroit dropped Anthony and Cameron Bairstow from the roster and renounced their rights to free agent Steve Blake. Even if he had remained on the roster, Anthony likely would have been no better than fourth on the depth chart at center behind Andre Drummond, Aron Baynes and Marjanovic. Now 33 and coming off a season in which he logged only 19 appearances, Anthony figures to attract sparse interest from other NBA teams.

The Pistons are expected to decline Anthony’s $2.5 million team option for the 2016-17 season, Pistons.com’s Keith Langlois reports.Despite remaining on the Pistons’ roster all of last season with the exception of a four-day window where a trade that would have sent him to the 76ers was voided, Anthony only appeared in 19 games last season, averaging 5.1 minutes per appearance. With the Pistons adding Henry Ellenson to the roster with their first-round pick in last week’s draft, it’s expected that he’ll act as the team’s emergency center, with starter Andre Drummond and backup Aron Baynes likely absorbing all of the minutes at the position most nights. Ellenson’s arrival and the recent acquisition of 25-year-old Cameron Bairstow from the Bulls seemingly leaves little reason for the Pistons to continue carrying Anthony, a 33-year-old journeyman with limited upside, on the roster.

The trade that sent Anthony to the Rockets, and subsequently, the 76ers, last Thursday was voided Monday, Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.The reason behind the voiding of the deal are medical concerns regarding Donatas Motiejunas, who has been sidelined since Dec. 31 with a back injury. While the Pistons had knowledge of the injury, Motiejunas underwent a post-trade physical examination, which turned up some longer-term concerns. As a result, the trade has been voided, meaning Motiejunas and Marcus Thornton will return to the Rockets, while Anthony will land back with the Pistons. In addition, the Pistons will also get back the first-round pick they sent to the Rockets, while the Rockets will return to the 76ers the second-rounder they sent in the Anthony deal.

Anthony will not be available Monday against Cleveland, Keith Langlois of Pistons.com reports.Anthony is wrapped up in a messy situation, having been traded twice since Thursday, only to have both deals voided Monday afternoon. Instead of joining the 76ers, Anthony will return to the Pistons, who had initially traded him, along with a first-round pick, to Houston on Thursday in exchange for Marcus Thornton and Donatas Motiejunas. Houston then shipped Anthony to the 76ers for a second-rounder. Anthony is expected back in Detroit on Tuesday, and his availability Wednesday will ultimately be decided by how quickly he can get reacclimated.
