Last night, Detroit Pistons fans who were clamoring for more Luke Kennard minutes were initially treated to some good news, followed shortly by some very bad news.
Kennard, who has only been playing 14 minutes per game this year (compared to 20 per game last season), was finally being featured in the offense in the first half against the Cavaliers. He was perfect on the night, shooting 4/4 (8 points) while adding an assist and a steal.
Unfortunately, at the end of the second quarter, he took a hard screen from Cleveland forward Channing Frye. It took him out of the game.
