Detroit Pistons: Optimistic predictions for the young core

Right now I would settle for all of these guys being healthy, but there is plenty to be excited about when it comes to the Pistons’ young core.

Killian Hayes: Hayes will play at least 75 games and lead the team in assists. If either of these things happen, I’ll be pretty happy.

Saddiq Bey: Saddiq Bey will set the all-time record for 3-pointers made by a player in his first two seasons in the league. Probably not, but he’ll be in the top-5 with some all-time great shooters.

Isaiah Stewart: Isaiah Stewart will average a double-double and lead the team in blocked shots.

Cade Cunningham: Cade Cunningham will win Rookie-of-the-Year and be top-5 in every significant statistical category for 2021-22 rookies.

Some of these things are far more likely to happen than others, but as Homer #1 is it my duty to report only the most optimistic future possibilities including this one: Shhhhh, people are sleeping on the Pistons and they are going to make the play-in tournament.

LET’S GOOOOOOOOOO!!!
