New Pistons president of basketball operations Trajan Langdon, who was hired a month ago, had been meeting regularly with Williams about the franchise's future, but the decision to dismiss Williams was directed from the ownership level with Tom Gores.
Langdon delivered the news to Williams on Wednesday morning, sources said.
Gores and Pistons vice chairman Arn Tellem had been advocates of dismissing Williams, sources said.
With the draft and free agency looming, it's an inopportune time for Langdon to conduct a coaching search. The Pistons recently agreed on terms to hire New Orleans Pelicans assistant Fred Vinson as a prominent assistant coach, sources said. Vinson had history with Williams and Langdon in New Orleans.
