The Detroit Pistons have already made one trade in this disastrous season, acquiring Danilo Gallinari and Mike Muscala for Marvin Bagley III, Isaiah Livers and seconds earlier this month. The team has played better, but they’re far from fixed. The guys dove into what GM Troy Weaver might have up his sleeve as we approach

With the Feb. 8 trade deadline fast approaching, we are hearing the last gasps of all the rumors and misdirections floating around NBA circles. For Detroit Pistons fans, it has been surprisingly, and perhaps distressingly silent. There are various names being gloated that we will get to, but I wanted to start with one that

The Detroit Pistons couldn’t find answers for the Orlando Magic’s stifling defense, and they could do nothing to stop Magic forward Franz Wagner, who matched a career high with 38 points in Orlando’s 111-99 victory. The Pistons played a strong first half, but eventually, they stopped sharing the ball, the threes stopped going down, and

The Killian Hayes era for the Detroit Pistons looks like it’s coming to a close. The fourth-year point guard has found himself out of the team’s rotation with rookie Marcus Sasser emerging and veteran Monte Morris firmly entrenched. After starting 144 games in his career, including 30 this year, Hayes has been a healthy DNP

The Los Angeles Clippers have won six of their previous seven games and have the second best net rating in the NBA in that span, trailing only the scorching-hot New York Knicks. The Clippers are as healthy as they’ve been all year, and that is certainly helping them find their groove. Kawhi Leonard once again

The Detroit Pistons will be without two key big men as the team announced Isaiah Stewart and Mike Muscala would both miss time with an ankle injury and concussion, respectively. Stewart will be re-evaluated in 10-14 days, while Muscala will be unable to return to basketball activities until completing a mandated return-to-participation process, the team

The Cleveland Cavaliers entered Wednesday’s game as one of the hottest teams in the NBA. The Detroit Pistons entered with a pulse for the first time this season after winning two of their last three games. And, wouldn’t you know it, they put on a fun, if not sloppy, show. Danilo Gallinari turned back the

When Darius Garland and Evan Mobley went down with long-term injuries within a few weeks of each other, many people thought the Cavs’ season was over. Instead, they rattled off a solid 2nd half of December and a solid January and find themselves in the thick of the playoff race. They will now have a

Detroit Pistons second-year standouts Jaden Ivey and Jalen Duren will take part in the Rising Stars game at the NBA’s 2024 All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis. The Pistons sophomores join a player pool of the best and brightest young stars across the league, plus a handful of selections from the NBA G League. The event is

The Detroit Pistons were coming off a dispiriting loss to the Washington Wizards, were on the second night of a back-to-back, and starting point guard Cade Cunningham was an 11th hour scratch. So of course the Pistons were able to outhustle, outmuscle, and outlast the Oklahoma City Thunder in a 120-104 win. The Pistons protected

The Detroit Pistons have long been pegged as a team much more likely to spend their exorbitant cap space on the trade market instead of waiting for free agency this summer, and rumors suggest a target for that space could be the Bulls’ Zach LaVine. LaVine has been the most explicitly available player on the

The Detroit Pistons won a basketball game. When that statement is available to make, you have to say it like it is. Plus, it’s their second win in less than 10 calendar days! Monte Morris made his season debut, his first game on the floor in a Pistons uniform. The veteran from Flint and 2013

If you haven’t yet heard, Monte Morris and Cade Cunningham are both probable to play in tonight’s game. This means that the Pistons will have a fully healthy roster for the first time this season, which means it is now game 1 and we can properly evaluate this team. And on the Hornets side of

The Detroit Pistons might have just gotten a first-year head coach fired. No, not Monty Williams, their own first-year head coach. I’m talking about Adrian Griffin. The Pistons sans Cade Cunningham were within one possession with four minutes or less remaining in back-to-back games against the Milwaukee Bucks, and now Bucks head coach Adrian Griffin

Marcus Sasser owns the Milwaukee Bucks. The rookie guard played the best game of his young career in November when he dropped 26 points against the Detroit Pistons’ Central Division rivals. He was at it again on Monday, slashing his way to 23 points off the bench against those same Bucks at LCA. Much like

The Detroit Pistons face the Milwaukee Bucks for the fourth and final time this season. Detroit is coming off of a hard-fought 141-135 loss at the hands of Milwaukee on Saturday. In that game, the Pistons were let down by a few subpar performances from their starting lineup. Mainly, everyone except for Jaden Ivey was

The consensus for the upcoming 2024 NBA Draft is that it is weaker than previous years, lacking a clear No. 1 prospect. That may be true at this point, but in every draft, some great players can change the direction of a franchise; they just have to be identified. While there is still a long

The Detroit Pistons are close to getting some much-needed reinforcements. This change isn’t coming via a big trade, but a return to health for the team’s best player, and perhaps the team’s most important bench player. Cade Cunningham is expected to return within the next week, the team announced, after missing the previous five games
