Because there are teams losing in bunches to

Killian Hayes receives the most hype and Saddiq Bey garners most of the headlines. It makes sense. Hayes is a lottery pick at perhaps the most consequential position on the floor and is the anointed point guard of the future in Detroit. Bey is the plug and play guy who fell in the first round

The Detroit Pistons and Dwane Casey are in the latter stages of a one-year contract extension for the veteran Pistons head coach, according to Adrian Wojnarowkski of ESPN.

In this week’s episode of Inside The Cylinder, Matt and I discuss the Pistons 119-100 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

In the immortal words of Sheneneh Jenkins, “Oh my gooooooodness …. “ The Detroit Pistons and Martin Lawrence have teamed up to launch some Pistons gear inspired by the classic Detroit-set sitcom from the 1990s. Martin ran for five season on Fox from 1992-97 and featured Lawrence as the titular character, a radio DJ in

Detroit Pistons fans are surprisingly optimistic, outside of some expected doom and gloom surrounding the upcoming NBA Draft Lottery. New GM Troy Weaver has radically transformed his roster during his inaugural season, he seems to have hit on two of his first four draft picks in Isaiah Stewart and Saddiq Bey, with plenty of glass-half-full

In a season full of young Detroit Pistons turning in unexpectedly impressive performances, it finally seems like it is Sekou Doumbouya’s turn. It’s been a rough season for the second-year French forward. After showing some real promise over a two- to three-week stretch his rookie year, the obvious expectation was that Sekou would expand on

In one of the more impactful games for the Detroit Pistons’ long-term future in quite some time, the third-worst Minnesota Timberwolves come to the Motor City to face a Pistons roster that looks to be extremely short-handed. Should Detroit lose, they will remain at least one game worse than the third-worst Oklahoma City Thunder and

With tonight’s matchup against Chicago Bulls, The Detroit Pistons enter the last stretch of the 2020-21 season. They will play them all at home with a fair amount of off days in between, which should help their squad full of intriguing youngsters, whose performance at this stage of their careers might be disrupted by schedule

The Detroit Pistons had Jerami Grant and Mason Plumlee back in the lineup, but they still had no answers for MVP candidate Joel Embiid in Detroit’s 118-104 loss on the road Saturday night. The loss secures Detroit the worst road record in the NBA. The game was not very competitive from the jump, and Philadelphia,

Anthony Tolliver is back, baby! Perhaps we’ll only get to spy him rooting on teammates, but considering Philly could be up by 30 before halftime, this could be a game of heavy minutes for the end of the Sixers’ bench. For Detroit, the Pistons look primed to run out Jearmi Grant and Mason Plumlee against

Jerami Grant and a host of Detroit Pistons veterans are available against the Philadelphia 76ers, perhaps for one final run as the season winds down.
