Detroit Pistons player profile: Stanley Johnson

By Leighton Chappell

"After the summer league, Stanley Johnson kept busy with basketball. He traveled home to California and competed in the Drew League, then went along to Toronto and competed in OVO Bounce alongside Brandon Jennings.Johnson ended up becoming a Drew League Champion, an OVO Bounce Champion (hitting the game winner in front of Drake), and being highly discussed on social media."

Upside and Motor prescribes patience for Henry Ellenson

By David Hoffman

"The Pistons drafted Ellenson with the hope that he could become the perfect stretch-four in Stan Van Gundy’s four-out scheme. This makes the development of Ellenson’s jump shot an absolute priority.This is where the patience comes in. In summer league, Ellenson only managed to shoot 31 percent from the field and 23.1 percent from long range. But according to Magnotti, the potential is there."
