ORLANDO – It wouldn’t be entirely accurate to say Summer League for the Pistons was all about gauging what they had in Stanley Johnson. But it wouldn’t miss by much, either.
Surely, there were other items on their agenda. One of them was nixed before the games even began when Quincy Miller took an elbow to the face that will sideline him until mid-August with broken facial bones.
Giving Spencer Dinwiddie a chance to run his own team counted for something, too, though the Pistons will put more stock in his performances in real NBA games as a rookie than anything that transpired in the frenetic moments of Summer League games.
