What’s Ish Smith been up to lately? Well, what has Ish not been up to lately? That’s the better question.
The Pistons have won six of their last nine games heading into the NBA All-Star break. A good chunk of that success because of Ish’s play.
It seems that more minutes for Ish means better ball movement and team engagement — and if the recent string of games is any indication, it means a better chance of winning ball games. Ish has put up seven double-digit scoring efforts in the last nine games while shooting 58 percent from the field during that span.
