I simulated the draft order on Tankathon precisely four times (in honor of Detroit’s 2004 championship) to pretty mixed results. First, the Detroit Pistons landed at No. 6, the furthest they can mathematically fall based on current standings. On second roll, they landed No. 1 and, presumably, Victor Wembanyama. Third time, Detroit got the second
With fewer than 20 games remaining, the Detroit Pistons are almost guaranteed a top-seven pick in the 2023 NBA draft. Entering Saturday, they have the second-worst record in the league, with 4½ games separating them from the fourth-from-the-bottom Charlotte Hornets.

The Detroit Pistons, down several key rotation players, extended their losing streak to seven games in a blowout by the Cleveland Cavaliers that was riddled with Pistons mistakes.

United Mortgage Wholesale CEO and Michigan State basketball alumnus Matt Ishbia recently purchased the Phoenix Suns. Now, Ishbia has poached former Detroit Pistons employee, and ex-Michigan basketball captain, to help run the show. TRADE WINDS:Early returns show there’s a lot to like about new Pistons center James Wiseman Pistons assistant general manager Josh Bartelstein has
Troy Weaver traded for James Wiseman with games like this in mind. The Detroit Pistons GM wanted more size. He thought the team needed enough big men to hang with the elites of the east, like the Cleveland Cavaliers.
