Troy Weaver, Dwane Casey, and certainly the marketing department of the Detroit Pistons have referenced the “core four.” That would be last year's draft picks — Killian Hayes, Saddiq Bey, Isaiah Stewart, and Saben Lee. Each showed at points this season why Weaver selected them, and how they could be a piece of the future.
Weaver completely reshaped this roster in his first offseason and nobody was spared as he got rid of every semblance of the SVG and Ed Stefanski eras.
Well, that is except for 20-year-old forward from France. Sekou Doumbouya. Despite being one of the youngest players in Detroit, Doumbouya is currently the longest-tenured Piston.
