Apologies for a belated game thread to discuss the Detroit Pistons vs. the New York Knicks in game three of Summer League action. I think we can safely say where things are landing for the Pistons after watching them for two games (where they have gone 1-1). The roster is a bit of a mess with only a few impactful players and a host of bigs and wings who struggle to do much with the ball in their hands.
But there are a few standouts to keep an eye on. Ebuka Okorie has shown some great things in both
games, though he struggled more in Game 2 than in Game 1. It’ll be nice to see him continuing to attack and figuring out how to use that ability to get by defenders to his advantage as a scorer, foul-drawer, and distributor. Second-year player Chaz Lanier decided he needed to start hitting shots starting in Game 2, and he’s barely missed since. He is 3-of-3 from deep as I type this. Isaac Jones is doing Some Stuff. Brice Williams is hitting Some Shots. Everyone else, well, it’s pretty meh, to be honest.
