In the few days off last week before a two-game road trip to Cleveland and Detroit when it appeared Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton would return to the Milwaukee Bucks after protracted absences, head coach Mike Budenholzer was asked if it felt like his team was getting a reset at about the halfway point of
Detroit — It was one of the most anticipated seasons in recent memory for the Pistons, after an exciting NBA draft and an offseason full of trades to bolster the roster. The buzz around the franchise seemingly increased the expectation level for fans overnight, despite the team’s 23-win campaign last season. Still, the Pistons, beaming
Victor Wembanyama seems to be the consensus No. 1 pick on almost every NBA Mock Draft. How will he fit with the teams who could win the draft lottery? Victor Wembanyama is a unique talent. A 7-foot-5 unicorn with elite shot-blocking potential who also handles the ball like a guard and can drain deep 3s
The Detroit Pistons, on paper, did everything necessary offensively to win Monday night. They scored 130 points, their fourth-highest total of the season, on 49.4% shooting and 40.6% from 3-point range. Bojan Bogdanovic had one of his best games of the season, scoring 33 points on just 15 shots, and rookies Jaden Ivey and Jalen

DETROIT – Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday played just their sixth game together this season Monday evening at Little Caesar’s Arena and led the Milwaukee Bucks to a 150-130 victory over the Detroit Pistons. It was a season-high point total for the Bucks. With the victory, the Bucks improved to 30-17 and became
We hear from coach Dwane Casey after his Pistons give up 49 first-quarter points and suffer a 150-130 loss to the Bucks on Monday. #DetroitBasketball
The Milwaukee Bucks are great. The Detroit Pistons are bad. Traveling home from Paris was hard. Killian Hayes and Isaiah Stewart were hurt. But the Pistons’ early effort in their 150-130 shellacking on Monday was unacceptable. There’s only one place to begin: the beginning of this god forsaken game. The Pistons, playing for the first
The game was over almost as soon as it began. The Milwaukee Bucks, who have a championship-caliber roster and one of the game’s most dominant players in Giannis Antetokounmpo, quickly put away a hobbled Detroit Pistons team that was missing not only Cade Cunningham, but several other core players as well Monday night. Killian Hayes
Detroit − Another poor defensive effort in the first half led to another disappointing loss for the Pistons. Last week, it was against the Chicago Bulls in Paris. This time, it was against the Milwaukee Bucks inside Little Caesars Arena on a night when the team honored the life and legacy of the late Bob
Johnny Kane speaks with ex-Piston shooting guard John Long, who shares his thoughts on Bob Lanier’s rivalry with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
The Detroit Pistons are a bad team and no deal at the NBA Trade Deadline is going to change its season. The Pistons are also in year three of a rebuild, and I don’t think any deal would appreciably change their long-term outlook. They’re going to have a high pick in a seemingly loaded 2023
As the NBA calendar edges closer to the league’s unofficial turning point—All-Star Weekend—the Detroit Pistons once again find themselves toiling in the basement of the standings. The Pistons currently have the second-worst record in the NBA, with only the 10-win Houston Rockets below them in the standings. As demoralizing as watching back-to-back-to-back 20-win seasons has
I am sure the Pistons had a great time in Paris, but everybody watching that game did not have a great time. They were blown out by the Bulls in front of Killian Hayes’ friends and family. They now return home after only playing that one game last week to face a Milwaukee Bucks team
Hey everyone! This is Laz Jackson of Detroit Bad Boys, and on this week’s podcast, Ben Gulker and I talk about your 12-36 Detroit Pistons. It’s a mailbag episode, so Ben and I answer your questions about Bojan Bogdanovic’s trade market, what this team is capable of defensively, and what to do with Wemby if
Detroit — Jalen Duren caught the ball about 12 feet from the basket and comfortably turned around before nailing a fadeaway jumper. It was a shot that Duren might not have taken earlier in the season, but the Pistons’ rookie center is showing more versatility in his offensive game as he gains more comfort in
The NBA trade deadline is on Feb. 9. And many Detroit Pistons fans are looking beyond this season, thanks to the 12-36 overall record, setting them on pace to finish with fewer than 25 wins for the fourth straight season. This month’s Pistons mailbag will break down trade ideas submitted by fans and also look
The first half of the Pistons’ season has been a disappointment if you’re purely looking at the record. The team stands at 12-36, which is the second-worst in the Eastern Conference and the third-worst record in the NBA. That outcome is due to the combination of injury woes, poor defense, mental collapses — and, quite
Killian Hayes has taken a step forward this season with his overall offensive production. Whether that is to a satisfactory level is still a debate but the improvement is undeniable. In a small uptick of minutes per game, Hayes has improved his points per game and assists per game while keeping his turnovers at just
