AUBURN HILLS – In the NBA’s era of position-less basketball, there’s still one incorruptible position: point guard.
And the Pistons will spend a considerable chunk of their off-season planning in pursuit of solutions at a position where only Reggie Jackson from last year’s roster is under contract for next season.
That means via trade, free agency or the draft, the Pistons almost certainly will add two point guards in the near future, perhaps in the next month.
There is very little chance the Pistons will come out of draft night confident that they’ve filled their backup point guard role – even if they were to spend the 15th pick on a point guard.
