Pistons sale could drag on until February

A process that was once reportedly supposed to be resolved by the end of November might now linger until February. Via the Detroit News:

"Citibank, which was hired by the widow of the late owner of the Pistons Bill Davidson to represent the franchise for the sale, informed potential buyers last week that the deal is unlikely to be completed until the NBA All-Star Game. The advisory to the potential buyers was confirmed by sources close to the deal."
