The Detroit Pistons had ample opportunity to end their double-digit losing streak Monday when they were able to hold their own against Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets, but couldn’t capitalize when the MVP got himself ejected, eventually falling 107-103. Detroit has had four days to lick its wounds and enjoy the holiday with family.

The Pistons announced a slew of injury updates today. Jalen Duren (ankle) is expected to return to practice this week and Bojan Bogdanovic (right calf strain) has begun a return to play progression and has been cleared for full basketball activities. Both of those updates are good and hopefully means both players will be returning

The Detroit Pistons are getting harder to watch with every game added to this now-12-game losing streak. Luckily, if you look closely enough, a new positive shows up about as often. This time around, it’s two-way wing Stanley Umude catching the eyes of head coach Monty Williams, prompting me to take a closer look at

The Detroit Pistons losing streak reached 11 games, falling to the Denver Nuggets 107-103 on a night when Nuggets star Nikola Jokic and head coach Michael Malone were ejected before halftime. Who needs the league’s best player when you have the heroics of Reggie Jackson? The former Pistons point guard exacted a bit of revenge

Good teams find a way to win. Bad teams find a way to lose. You know where the Detroit Pistons fall. First it was Denver Nuggets coach Mike Malone — then later two-time MVP Nikola Jokic — tossed by the officials for arguing calls. It felt like the Pistons finally had luck fall their way,

Because I understand how fun and rewarding (via clicks) an article building hypothetical trades for the latest NBA star who has hit the trading block is, I also know that getting put through the aggregation machine can be hell even if it is simply the cost of doing business. So let me start with a

It seems like each week I write these previews I talk about the previous game in which the Pistons almost won to put an end to their win streak, but a couple of mistakes down the stretch ultimately cost them. I am saying the same thing after Tuesday’s close loss to the Hawks in which

Is Monty Williams finally ready to remake the Detroit Pistons starting lineup? He didn’t say it outright, but the Pistons head coach did acknowledge the need to get the struggling Cade Cunningham on the floor operating in more space. Speaking to reporters after practice, Williams said, “I have to do a better job of allowing

I’ve always wanted to keep this column generally positive, but right now it’s hard to look at the Detroit Pistons and think anything positive, especially riding a nine-game losing streak. One player I did want to touch on is Ausar Thompson. I felt like I was very high on him relative to the rest of

The Detroit Pistons have been guilty of slow starts routinely throughout Troy Weaver’s “restoration” process. Most times, it’s warranted. The team has been bad more often than not, so losing games early in the year has always made sense. That doesn’t make it any less appetizing for the fans, nor for the Pistons players —

“You wanna trend something? I’m pissed! So go ahead, get it out there.” That all-time quote by the ageless Pat Riley perfectly encapsulates my current feelings on the ongoing Jaden Ivey situation. In the same breath, I’ll go ahead and point out that I do, in fact, know we are early in this season and

The Motor City Cruise are officially the hottest (basketball) team in Detroit. Head coach Jamelle McMillan is off to an ideal start as a head coach, not only winning games but developing his own culture. The Cruise (2-0) defeated the Grand Rapids Gold in their first game Sunday and followed with a victory in the

The Detroit Pistons couldn’t eecute down the stretch and fell to the Atlanta Hawks 126-120. The Pistons didn’t have any answers for Dejounte Murray, who got a featured role with Trae Young out. Murray was able to create space for smooth jumpers, and when Detroit defenders decided to crowd him, he knifed through the defense
