Detroit Pistons: 3 things to watch in Tankapalooza vs. Cavaliers
Detroit Pistons vs. Cleveland Cavaliers: Killian Hayes takes on Isaac Okoro
Both the Cavs and Pistons look a lot different than they did the last time they played, as both have made changes that shook up their rosters.
Another difference is that Killian Hayes is back and will get to take on fellow rookie Isaac Okoro in a matchup I am really looking forward to.
Fans of the Detroit Pistons should be excited about Hayes, as he has played well since his return, and he’ll be taking on Okoro, who is one of the best perimeter defenders from the draft.

Hayes has flashed elite passing ability at times, has been more aggressive taking the ball to the rim and has been smothering guards on the defensive end.
His shooting is obviously still a work in progress, but he has been a lot more confident with the ball since returning from injury, which was one of the things we we hoping to see.
Okoro has been solid for the Cavs and looks like a guy who will have a long career as a lockdown defender, so this will be a good challenge for Killian Hayes.
