The Detroit Pistons

in exchange for Greg Foster

Following that season, Hunter was dealt again (on draft night 2002), this time to the Toronto Raptors

and Kareem Rush
. In August 2003, the Pistons re-acquired Hunter by sending Michael Curry

). Two days later, the Bulls hired him as a player development assistant.
