Today looks like it will be the day that prized rookie Cade Cunningham will make his debut for the Detroit Pistons. After missing all of preseason and the first four games of the NBA season, Cunningham’s name is absent from team’s most recent injury report. While the ankle injury that had kept him out of

One of the more interesting players on this year’s Detroit Pistons squad is former No. 4 overall pick Josh Jackson. He came to Detroit last offseason as one of Troy Weaver’s “reclamation projects” and immediately caught the fan base’s attention with his play to start the season. An ankle injury slowed down the hype train,

If you know me here at Detroit Bad Boys, then you know I love me some NBA Draft Content! In a recurring column here on the site, I am going to be previewing many 2022 NBA Draft Prospects for our Detroit Pistons—and I am going to start with the upperclassmen and returning players from college

Close but no cigar. For three quarters, the Detroit Pistons looked to be on their way to another brutal loss. This time, though, they rallied. Led by maligned point guard Killian Hayes, Detroit put together a huge fourth quarter, cutting a 22-point deficit to 5 before running out of gas in an 110-102 against the

The Detroit Pistons are looking for their first win while the Philadelphia 76ers are looking for a bit of clarity. The good news for that quest is that Joel Embiid, who had been questionable with a sore knee (uh oh), will be available tonight. The second bit of good news is that the Pistons are

This season has always been about development over wins for the Detroit Pistons. We knew this team had the chance to be very bad, and through three games, it has been truly horrendous. Now, they’ll figure it out at some point… but next up on their brutal opening schedule is a road game at the

It’s been a pretty ugly start to the season for the Detroit Pistons. The 0-3 record isn’t the problem, per se, it’s more the fashion in which they’ve lost. On one hand, it’s been good to see this team defend its ass off, that’s a positive and shows real effort from a young group. The

The number of winless teams is dwindling and is now down to only two teams — the 0-3 Detroit Pistons and the 0-4 Oklahoma City Thunder. That has caused a bit of unease among Pistons fans who expected improvements this year after last year’s 20-win finish. Most of that ire has been directed at point

Judging by fan angst, reaction and vitriol, it appears the honeymoon is over for the Detroit Pistons. An offseason that began with the excitement of the No. 1 pick and talk of a play-in game has already devolved into despair, finger-pointing and talk about 2022 lottery picks. I get it. We have yet to see

On episode 58 of the Motor City Hoops Podcast, I had the pleasure of being joined by Mat Issa, creator of “Quest for the Best” and The Rise Network. Mat is a native of Michigan and helped me break down the Pistons’ loss to the Hawks. We also dove into some developing storylines from this

The Detroit Pistons continue to struggle offensively and ran into a buzzsaw called Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks offense. The Pistons played some tough first-half defense, but Young and the Hawks got untracked in the second half and started to hit shots, run the floor, and finish alley-oops. In short, they made things look

The Detroit Pistons have been a pretty awful team through two games. Now imagine them without Jerami Grant. Scary, right? Well, we might just see that tonight against the Atlanta Hawks as Grant is questionable with a left elbow infection. The Pistons are the only team in the Eastern Conference without a win. Will that

Hey everyone. This is Laz Jackson of Detroit Bad Boys, and on this week’s episode we’re talking about your 0-2 Detroit Pistons. Ben Gulker and I talk about why the Pistons’ offense has struggled, Saddiq Bey being one of few bright spots for this team, and I issue a formal apology to Trey Lyles. The

Regardless of how good you thought the Detroit Pistons would be this season, the beginning of the season schedule was always going to be a struggle for this team. Playing without Cade Cunningham will just make it more difficult. Many people thought Chicago was going to be good this year due to the additions they

Well folks, that was…rough. The Cade Cunnigham-less Detroit Pistons entered the night looking to even the season series with their division rival Chicago Bulls. Despite jumping out to a quick 9-0 lead and a strong first quarter, the Pistons were hindered by poor decisions and horrific outside shooting. Once again, the young Pistons couldn’t buy

The Detroit Pistons play the Chicago Bulls for the second time in as many games tonight. Detroit is in the United Center looking to avenge its season-opening 94-88 loss. For the Bulls, this is already game No. 3, with the team beating the New Orleans Pelicans 128-112. The good news for the Pistons is that

Cade Cunningham hasn’t played a game yet for the Detroit Pistons, but he has the backing of NBA fans as the most likely to win Rookie of the Year, according to the latest SB Nation Reacts survey. Fans were asked to vote on major awards and which team will emerge from each conference in the

There is no shortage of players Detroit Pistons fans are emotionally, some would say spiritually, invested in. There is No. 1 overall pick Cade Cunningham, of course, who has yet to make his Pistons debut. There is the conundrum of Killian Hayes and his lack of offense. Heck, there is even a cult of personality

Deeee-troit Basketball is back!! No, it’s really back!! We are not talking about the pretend basketball you find in Summer League, training camp or even preseason. We are talking about the real, meaningful NBA basketball. Detroit Pistons basketball is back and after one game it looks like the Isaiah Stewart we all fell in love
