Why Detroit Pistons rookie Sekou Doumbouya might head back to the G League

Sekou Doumbouya only played eight minutes for the Detroit Pistons against the Brooklyn Nets and head coach Dwane Casey suggested that he might be going back to the G League to regain confidence, according to media reports.

In Brooklyn, Casey pulled Doumbouya to the bench early in the first quarter as the Nets built a 12-point lead. The Pistons quickly made up for the difference and were even able to take the lead in the second quarter while Doumbouya was looking from the bench.

The 19-year-old rookie started the second half and the Nets quickly built up a lead again.
