Updating the Detroit Pistons roster and who should start
By Ash Vanclay
Who Should Start?
The Pistons roster seems deadlocked heading into training camp in late September. Of course, there is the possibility of adding another player to a non-guaranteed contract, but a drastic move would come as a surprise.
The starting rotation is rather predictable but the backend of the rotations is where the biggest competitions loom large. Here’s how it would shake out if I were the coach.
Starters: Reggie Jackson, Bruce Brown, Tony Snell, Blake Griffin, and Andre Drummond
Bench: Derrick Rose, Luke Kennard, Svi Mykhailiuk, Markieff Morris, Thon Maker
Spot Minutes/Reserves/Inactive: Tim Frazier, Langston Galloway, Khyri Thomas, Sekou Doumbouya, Michael Beasley
Now this isn’t to say that other players won’t step up. Injuries are a part of a long season so the reserves, and those earning spot minutes, could be thrusted into a larger role.
Here’s what the fanbase (or at the very least 560 of you that voted on Twitter) thought.
