The Detroit Pistons just pulled off one of their more entertaining seasons in recent history, largely because of the play of their rookies.
It really was a masterclass in tanking, as the Pistons played competitive games while getting their young players a ton of minutes and bringing some excitement back to the city of Detroit.
You couldn’t really ask for much more in the first year of a rebuild and the Pistons are not only setting themselves up for long-term success but have enough talent to make the playoffs next season with the right offseason moves.
