The Detroit Pistons announced that Aaron Gray will miss some training camp while rehabbing from a cardiac episode suffered following a voluntary workout in late August. The episode didn't happen at the facility, said head coach and president of basketball operations Stan Van Gundy.

The 7-0, 270-pound center has undergone a full evaluation and is currently seeking additional medical assessments from cardiac specialists to determine a timetable for a return.

"I'm taking a little bit of extra time to gather as much information as possible," Gray said. "I'm really hoping everything goes well. Once we have all the information we'll put a plan in place and be off and running. Not only a second opinion, but the episode happened so soon. I'll do all the tests and wait two to four weeks, do all the test again. The body is responding great right now.''

Van Gundy said Gray would likely miss a lot of training camp, which prompted the team to sign HasheemThabeetto a contract.

"That's my guy,'' said Andre Drummond.
