Luke Kennard’s return will help Detroit Pistons take next step

Luke Kennard was a nightly contributor off the bench and even started in nine games last season for the Detroit Pistons.

Much of the talk about Kennard was negative because of what Donovan Mitchell was able to do last season with the Utah Jazz.

The Pistons drafted the Duke standout just one spot before the Mitchell. He went on to be the rookie of the year and lead the Jazz to a playoff series victory.

That should take away from what Kennard actually did during his rookie season.

He was easily one of the best shooters on the team last season.
