According to James Edwards of The Athletic, Pistons second-year forward Isaiah Livers is “primed for a breakout season in Detroit.”
As Edwards writes, “He [Livers] was the team’s best performer at summer league, is a deadeye shooter, and has good defensive instincts. Livers also has some off-the-dribble stuff that I don’t think we’ve seen at the NBA level yet.”
Edwards added that the 24-year-old could earn a spot in head coach Dwane Casey’s starting five with a strong training camp.
A second-round pick out of Michigan in the 2021 Draft, Livers saw minimal action his rookie season, appearing in just 19 games for the Pistons, averaging 6.
