When it rains it pours. According to Keith Langlois both Tobias Harris and Aron Baynes have suffered broken noses. Health has not been in the Pistons’ favor during the preseason.
Reggie Jackson had a platelet-rich plasma injection to help alleviate the knee tendinitis that he has suffered from throughout training camp. Marcus Morris has missed most of the preseason with knee tendinitis too. Stanley Johnson injured his left foot. Aron Baynes missed a couple games with back spasms. Even Andre Drummond missed a game due to illness.
One silver lining to this is the fact that broken noses generally do not keep players out of any games.
