Detroit Pistons starting lineups after Isaiah Stewart injury
That first option would be brutal defensively, which is why coach Casey may have to consider moving the rookie Jalen Duren into the starting five.
- Killian Hayes
- Jaden Ivey
- Bojan Bogdanovic
- Saddiq Bey
- Jalen Duren
This group is still not great defensively (it never will be with Bey and Bogdanovic out there together) but at least would have some rim protection and more rebounding.
If Bey is going to be moved back to the starting five, I think Duren has to come with him, leaving Bagley III and Alec Burks as the primary scoring options coming off the bench.
Of course, Dwane Casey could decide to go big, which might be his best option.
