Detroit — In choosing a seat mate for a long flight, Pistons forward Saddiq Bey might not be very many people’s first pick. He’s naturally quiet. He chooses his words carefully and he probably would prefer reading a book than talking at length in a casual conversation. Bey is measured, seemingly not wanting to say
As a rookie, Saddiq Bey delivered as expectedfor the Detroit Pistons. The No. 19 overall pick was regarded as one of the best shooters in the 2020 draft after knocking down 41.8% of his 3-point attempts at Villanova, including 45.1% as a sophomore.

The Detroit Pistons opened their 2021-22 season with a game reminiscent of last season. They played energetic defense and exchanged blows with the Chicago Bulls, a team that’s well-positioned to make the playoffs in a tough Eastern Conference. Like last year, the Pistons were doomed by mistakes brought by youth, such as missed shots and
Detroit — They showed fight and energy and some old-school defense. Several times they brought the Little Caesars Arena crowd to its feet, on the verge of an outburst, and then they’d miss. The Pistons missed a chance in their opener Wednesday night, falling to the Bulls 94-88. They missed shots down the stretch, they
Detroit — The Pistons opened the season with a 94-88 loss to the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night, and even in a loss, there were some good takeaways from their performance.

Detroit — Even if the Pistons don’t end up being a playoff team this season, they look like they’ll be fun to watch, and play hard in most games. Against the Chicago Bulls — who, by most accounts, will be a tough playoff-level team — the Pistons made a statement and stayed close throughout the
