The Detroit Pistons need big wings. Eugene Omoruyi fits the bill. The former Oklahoma City Thunder forward, who was waived earlier this week, has signed a 10-day deal with Detroit according to the team. It’s a solid shot by Troy Weaver at a position of need for the Pistons after the trade of Saddiq Bey.

Jaden Ivey pulled a Chris Webber. And he did it on C-Webb’s birthday. After rallying back from down 21 points, the Detroit Pistons had a chance to tie or take the lead against the struggling Chicago Bulls. Ivey, inbounding the ball without a timeout remaining, couldn’t find an angle to get Bojan Bogdanovic the ball.

Post-All-Star break means it is officially the 2023 NBA Draft season for the Detroit Pistons and for Pistons fans.

Game 63. We are now officially on the home stretch, with only 20 games left in the 2022-2023 season. Tonight, the Pistons play host to their division rival; the Chicago Bulls. Though they enter tonight’s contest on the back of a 104-98 loss to the Toronto Raptors, the Bulls had been playing better since signing

The Detroit Pistons will honor the title-winning Detroit Shock team for its 20th anniversary during the March 9 contest against the Charlotte Hornets at Little Caesars Arena, the team announced. The Shock’s first title came one season after having the WNBA’s worst record. The team was led by WNBA Finals MVP Ruth Riley, Hall of

What a weird game. For nearly three quarters, the Detroit Pistons were comatose. Down three starters — Jaden Ivey (personal), Bojan Bogdanovic (achilles), and Isaiah Stewart (hip) — against the Charlotte Hornets, the Pistons’ effort couldn’t have been worse. They couldn’t shoot. They wouldn’t defend. They were dead on arrival. Then, everything changed in the

The Detroit Pistons and center Nerlens Noel have completed a buyout and Noel is now free to sign with any club, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. After the Pistons were unable to swing a trade for Noel at the trade deadline, a buyout was the most likely outcome and by completing the buyout before

We have reached the point of the season where teams like the Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics are fighting for playoff positions and teams like the Detroit Pistons and Charlotte Hornets are suffering “injuries” in hopes of securing the best odds at the number 1 pick. It is all about evaluating young players and staying

Hey everyone! This is Laz Jackson of Detroit Bad Boys, and on this week’s podcast, we’re talking about your 15-46 Detroit Pistons. The All-Star Break is over, the calendar is about to turn to March, and Ben is out, so I talk to Steve Pelletier of the RezBall Substack and podcast about the his Big

Coming out of the All-Star break, the Detroit Pistons have a complicated task. On one hand, the Pistons should want to be as competitive as possible to close the season. On the other, there is the looming reality of the NBA Draft and the importance for Detroit to have the best chance possible to land

Jalen Duren is out and that means we will see a whole lot more of James Wiseman as the Detroit Pistons take on the Toronto Raptors tonight at Little Caesars Arena. That’s not a bad thing, as it’s a god opportunity to get a sense of what the big man can do with extended minutes

The Toronto Raptors are in town. Which means Little Caesar’s arena will probably be littered with a healthy amount of Raptors fans, repping their black and red, or possibly purple colors, as they’ll likely execute acoustical dominance over your hometown Detroit Pistons fans. Unfortunately for Detroit, this has been par for the course for nearly

Marquee teams are suiting up for less-than-marquee matchups tonight. We have a Milwaukee Bucks team without Giannis Antetokounmpo at 7:30 p.m. and a Phoenix Suns team without Kevin Durant at 10 p.m. While the wattage might be a bit dimmed, it should make the games even more competitive and, hopefully entertaining. The Bucks will face

The Orlando Magic are where the Detroit Pistons probably should be. They’re still bad, but they’re improved. Orlando, of course, has the services of their talented sophomore, Franz Wagner, while the Pistons have never figured out how to prosper in the post-Cade Cunningham world. But in their first game after the all-star break, Detroit and

Are you a Detroit Pistons fan who also loves to break down tape of college and G League prospects? Do you think the NBA Draft is not just about grabbing the right lottery pick but about grabbing contributors in the second round? Can you explain the pluses and minuses of potential draft picks from a

Approximately four weeks ago, in the pregame of Detroit’s Jan. 26 encounter with the Brooklyn Nets, Dwane Casey decided to put the offense in the hands of Jaden Ivey. The rookie guard was given lead guard duties, while point guard Killian Hayes was sent to the bench in favor of veteran off guard Alec Burks.

For teams like the Orlando Magic and Detroit Pistons, the All-Star Break is a relatively quiet time as neither team had representatives in the All-Star game. Both teams had young players competing in various All-Star events like the Rising Stars game and Skills Challenge, but those are the quieter events of the weekend. It makes

Troy Weaver is collecting old NBA Draft crushes like, I dunno, Pokemon? Is that a dated reference? Anyway, the Detroit Pistons are signing young guard RJ Hampton after he received his release from the Orlando Magic, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. Hampton was traded to the Magic nearly two years ago in the big Aaron
