Should the Detroit Pistons draft Shaedon Sharpe?
How risky is it to draft Shaedon Sharpe in the top-5? In the history of the NBA draft, 45 players have been taken directly out of high school. It hasn't always panned out for teams but if a player has talent and work ethic the rest will figure itself out. Originally from Ontario, Shaedon Sharpe was a member of the 2022 recruiting class but he reclassified and
Lions’ QB Jared Goff looks ‘different’ from this time last year
The Detroit Lions belong to Jared Goff. This is his team. And for the time being, get used to it. Since arriving in Detroit, many questions have surrounded him. Is he bait for a future trade? Will he be a bridge quarterback? Can he be "THE guy" to replace Matthew Stafford? And the biggest one of all? Can the Lions win with him? Mandatory minicamp is underway
Pistons Draft: Dyson Daniels is a late riser
As the 2022 NBA Draft inches closer, the Detroit Pistons have begun private workouts with some of the class' top prospects. One such prospect is Dyson Daniels of the G-League Ignite. The 19-year-old from Australia spent the 2021-22 season with the Ignite. He averaged 11.3 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.4 assists per contest with the team. The Australian native fits the prototypical build that Pistons' GM Troy
Is Lions’ CB Jeff Okudah already a ‘bust’?
Many questions surround Jeff Okudah heading into his third season with the Detroit Lions. Is he healthy? Can he stay healthy? How will he look under a full season with Dan Campbell and his coaching staff? These are all valid questions. The Lions selected Okudah with the third overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. Up to this point, there's been little return on investment. So we're
Pistons Free Agency: This is not the offseason to spend
For the first time in years, the Detroit Pistons have salary cap space to spend in free agency. Blake Griffin's buyout is officially off the books, freeing up nearly $30 million. Heading into the offseason, the Pistons will have nearly enough cap room for a max contract. With this newfound cap room has come the expectation for the Pistons' front office to spend. There are not a
The Detroit Tigers soaring fly balls
Whether it’s warm weather or something else, the recent surge by the Detroit Tigers may have other factors behind it. The Detroit Tigers are 12-9 in their last 21 games. They have been playing better baseball as of late (minus last night) but with all the injuries to the starting rotation and outfield, Detroit is getting some good news that Riley Greene and Austin Meadows should arrive
Crucial games on the Lions 2022 schedule
The 2022-2023 NFL schedule has been out for a few weeks. It is never a bad time to look ahead to bookmark some games that could prove to be significant for the Detroit Lions. The Lions have been blessed with one of the easiest schedules in the league, with their opponents combining for a 135-154 (.467) record last season. However, teams have drastically changed during the offseason,
Opinion: The Pistons should sign Deandre Ayton
Going into the summer of 2022, the Detroit Pistons will have ample opportunity to improve. And perhaps there might not be a quicker way to improve than by adding Deandre Ayton. The big man will hit the market this summer and demand maximum dollars this summer, and that is for quite a few reasons. However, should the Pistons take the leap for Deandre Ayton? Despite being a
Pistons finding Cunningham’s backcourt partner
The Detroit Pistons are in the market for a new starting guard. For much of the 2021-22 NBA season, the Pistons started Cory Joseph in their backcourt with Cade Cunningham. Joseph was serviceable. That is to say, he played well enough off-ball to not be a liability in a system where Cunningham was ball-dominant. This past season, the veteran guard shot a career-high 41.3 percent from beyond
Willie Horton and his Impact on Detroit
To the older generation of Detroit sports fans, the name Willie Horton brings back memories of a 1968 World Series Championship, four all-star appearances and one of the most explosive bats in the Tigers history. To the younger generation, Horton is a name you've heard from the old timers or someone you've never heard of. His playing career Horton had a long career spanning 18 years from
The Detroit Tigers having pitching depth, now what?
The Detroit Tigers farm system continues to provide arms among all the injuries. The problems with the Detroit Tigers offense are well known. Detroit ranks 28th in batting average at .220, 29th in on-base percentage of .283, and last in home runs with 27. However, the strength of the team has been the pitching, despite the injuries to the starting rotation. Left-hander Tarik Skubal continues to elevate himself
Pistons draft board: the best options at five
The lottery gods were not in the Detroit Pistons' favor this offseason. Despite holding a 40.1 percent chance of landing a top-three pick and a 52 percent chance of remaining in the top four, the Pistons fell to the fifth overall selection after the lottery. Detroit likely misses out on the three big men who headline this year's draft class with the fifth pick. Gonzaga's Chet Holmgren,
