Detroit — The clock is ticking close to 11 a.m. on a Friday in early December, and Stacey Lovelace is sitting courtside inside Wayne State Fieldhouse as the Motor City Cruise prepares for a regular-season game against the Iowa Wolves. It’s an early morning for Lovelace, an assistant general manager with the Cruise, the Detroit
We hear from coach Dwane Casey after his Pistons outlast the Hornets 141-134 in overtime on Wednesday. #DetroitBasketball
We hear from Killian Hayes after he posts 25 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds Wednesday. #DetroitBasketball
A showdown between the two teams with the worst records in the NBA occurred on Wednesday night, but the offensive firepower on display said otherwise. The Pistons and Charlotte Hornets were deadlocked at 127-127 with just one second left in regulation. Terry Rozier nearly drained the game-winning 3-pointer but the ball rimmed out, resulting in
The Detroit Pistons confirmed earlier this week that their blossoming second-year guard, Cade Cunningham, will miss the rest of the season. On Wednesday, Killian Hayes offered more confirmation that until Cunningham returns, the Pistons are in good hands. A deep, stepback 3-pointer from Hayes with 1:11 left in overtime helped the Pistons defeat the Charlotte
We hear from Isaiah Stewart after he contributes a double-double, 19 points and 11 rebounds, in Wednesday’s OT win in Charlotte. #DetroitBasketball
When bad teams get together, good basketball rarely follows. But fun basketball? Ohhhh yeah, there’s fun basketball. That’s what made Tuesday’s game between the Detroit Pistons and Charlotte Hornets so good. Neither team was at full-strength and neither team played any defense — but the final result was an offensive explosion and an overtime finish.
The Charlotte Hornets season has been a sad affair. The troubles started before the season even started with assault charges and disturbing photos released by his wife featuring injuries after an alleged attack. The Hornets then lost Cody Martin in October, Gordon Hayward is out indefinitely after a November shoulder fracture, LaMelo Ball missed the
So much for that Detroit Pistons rebuild taking a step forward this season. And possibly next season. The stress fracture in Cade Cunningham’s left shin, and the season-ending surgery he has elected to have on it, have hobbled any chance the Pistons had this season to make progress with promising young players Jalen Duren, Killian

Detroit — Troy Weaver called this “ground zero” back in September, and he meant it in the best way possible. The Pistons’ general manager was talking about his “restoration” project in Detroit reaching a new stage, with the foundation laid and the substructure settling into place. He’d built up a young core of talent here
Cade Cunningham made the right decision for himself and for the Detroit Pistons. But that doesn’t mean it was an easy decision. Cunningham, who will undergo season-ending surgery to repair a stress fracture in his left shin later this week, took a few weeks to make the biggest decision of his young NBA career. He
The bloom sort of feels off the rose on these alleged marquee matchups. Simply put, the Milwaukee Bucks are a lot better than the Golden State Warriors at this point. And the Boston Celtics are certainly a lot better than the Los Angeles Lakers. That doesn’t mean that the Warriors or Lakers are incapable of
Detroit — Pistons general manager Troy Weaver and coach Dwane Casey addressed Cade Cunningham’s left shin injury, which will require season-ending surgery, after Tuesday’s practice. Cunningham, who has missed the last 17 games since Nov. 9, was deliberating between rest and rehabilitation or surgery for the past month. Weaver also confirmed that the cause of
The Lakers have reportedly had their eyes on Bojan Bogdanovic but one NBA insider says they’re going to have a hard time prying him from the Pistons. The Lakers have been linked to a half-dozen high-value trade targets already this season but an NBA insider is implying that one dream target may be out of

It’s hard to pinpoint what exactly has ailed Saddiq Bey this season. This, after all, is the same guy who scored 51 points against the Orlando Magic last season. It’s not as if the Detroit Pistons forward forgot how to shoot as the first quarter of the NBA season wraps up. Bey has been bad
The Detroit Pistons projected optimism at media day — and they had good reason to. Beyond their impressive 2022 draft and roster-improving trades, the biggest reason for optimism was the continued development of their No. 1 wearing No. 2: Cade Cunningham. The 6-foot-6 point guard finished third in Rookie of the Year voting (and arguably
