Coming out of high school, Isaiah Stewart was the third-best prospect in the country, according to 247 composite rankings. One year later, after he was drafted by the Detroit Pistons with the 16th overall pick in 2020, he was said to lack offensive versatility and was called one of the biggest reaches in the first

The Sacramento Kings have been one of the NBA’s biggest surprises this season. On Friday, they showed the Detroit Pistons why they’ve emerged as a playoff favorite. A poor second half proved costly for the Pistons, who lost at Little Caesars Arena, 122-113. Detroit carried an eight-point lead into halftime but was outscored 67-50 in
Detroit — Just when it appeared as if the Pistons were trending toward their second consecutive win, they gave up a 38-point third quarter to the Sacramento Kings to reverse their fortunes. It was a game marred by foul trouble, scoring runs and lackadaisical transition defense as Detroit suffered a 122-113 loss to Sacramento on
The Pistons and Kings started this one out with back-to-back 3s and it looked like we were in for the usual offensive showdown that Kings games are. It wasn’t quite that explosive offensively, but it was still a competitive game outside of the 3rd quarter. After the rapid start, both teams cooled down for a
Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham underwent surgery Friday to “stabilize and promote complete healing” of a left tibial stress fracture, according to the team. The surgery was expected, as league sources told the Free Press that Cunningham would undergo the procedure this week. The 2021 first overall pick was initially shut down for five games
The road to recovery starts soon for Pistons guard Cade Cunningham. The team announced Friday that Cunningham underwent surgery “to stabilize and promote complete healing of a left tibial stress fracture.” The surgery was performed by Dr. David Porter and Dr. Mark Ritter of Forte Sports Medicine and Orthopedics (Carmel, Ind.) in consultation with team
The Beam Team, better known as the Sacramento Kings, has become everyone’s second favorite team this season. After years (16 years to be precise) toiling in the waste lands of the Western Conference, the Kings are currently sixth in their conference standings. Could they finally end their playoff drought? Lead by newly instated head coach
In brief flashes, we have seen the two-way perimeter player the Detroit Pistons envisioned Isaiah Stewart becoming. When the team OK’ed 3-pointers with volume. When he delivered the occasional guard-like drive to the rim against defenses giving him space. When he showed surprising promise on defense while staying in front of smaller players on switches.
With 2:33 remaining in the third term of last Sunday’s contest with the Los Angeles Lakers, Bojan Bogdanovic found himself in a familiar position. The Detroit Pistons forward was guarded chest-to-chest above the three-point line by the opponent’s most reliable defender. This time it was Lakers veteran Patrick Beverly. Up to this moment, the Croatian
Detroit — Jalen Duren is quickly earning a reputation as one of the best rebounders in the NBA. The 19-year-old rookie is averaging 14.6 rebounds per game since entering the Pistons’ starting lineup, and he had his most impressive performance on Wednesday night against the Charlotte Hornets. In a career-high 36 minutes, Duren dominated the
Troy Weaver has been one of the NBA’s most active general managers when it comes to the trade market. The Detroit Pistons have seemingly gone through an endless roster overhaul over the last three years. It’s safe to assume that Weaver will work the phones once again ahead of this season’s deadline, which is on
Detroit — The clock is ticking close to 11 a.m. on a Friday in early December, and Stacey Lovelace is sitting courtside inside Wayne State Fieldhouse as the Motor City Cruise prepares for a regular-season game against the Iowa Wolves. It’s an early morning for Lovelace, an assistant general manager with the Cruise, the Detroit

A showdown between the two teams with the worst records in the NBA occurred on Wednesday night, but the offensive firepower on display said otherwise. The Pistons and Charlotte Hornets were deadlocked at 127-127 with just one second left in regulation. Terry Rozier nearly drained the game-winning 3-pointer but the ball rimmed out, resulting in
The Detroit Pistons confirmed earlier this week that their blossoming second-year guard, Cade Cunningham, will miss the rest of the season. On Wednesday, Killian Hayes offered more confirmation that until Cunningham returns, the Pistons are in good hands. A deep, stepback 3-pointer from Hayes with 1:11 left in overtime helped the Pistons defeat the Charlotte
We hear from Isaiah Stewart after he contributes a double-double, 19 points and 11 rebounds, in Wednesday’s OT win in Charlotte. #DetroitBasketball
When bad teams get together, good basketball rarely follows. But fun basketball? Ohhhh yeah, there’s fun basketball. That’s what made Tuesday’s game between the Detroit Pistons and Charlotte Hornets so good. Neither team was at full-strength and neither team played any defense — but the final result was an offensive explosion and an overtime finish.
