Season Averages for the Detroit Pistons: 4.3 Points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 39 percent from the field, 25 percent from deep. Started 56 games, played in 74.
The spotlight is fairly dim in Detroit. There’s no overhaul of media busting down the door after every game, nor are there too many national broadcasts. So Bruce Brown’s rookie season went relatively unnoticed.
Now, that’s not to say it was outstanding by any means, he wasn’t overshadowed by anyone, and maybe he didn’t exceed expectations. But, he certainly proved he has a future in this league.
