Detroit Pistons: Selection of Ausar Thompson Changed Free Agency Strategy
After a successful summer league for Ausar Thompson, the Detroit Pistons have to feel more comfortable with how free agency has gone. Thompson averaged 13.5 points, ten rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.8 blocks per game.

Hunter Dickinson Needs to Shut the Hell Up
Watching a good player transfer out of your program is never fun. But when that player starts to complain about said program, well, now you’re kind of glad he’s gone.
