The Detroit Pistons were hoping for a bit more progress out of Sekou Doumbouya in year two, but there were a number of factors working against him.
Doumbouya had a hard time earning minutes off Dwane Casey’s bench, which led to a dip in statistics across the board, which was disappointing considering the flashes he showed in his rookie season.
This has led to speculation that Doumbouya will be traded in the offseason, but unless the offer is right, it is probably too early to give up on a guy this young just because his career has gotten off to a rocky start.
