The Detroit Pistons finished with the worst record in the NBA for the second straight season, and have struggled for many years. The team has owned the worst record in the NBA over the last 15 seasons. Despite owning poor records, the Pistons have continuously picked fifth in the draft. They have many opportunities ahead with available cap space and potential free-agent acquisitions.
However, fantasy managers can find positive takeaways from the team. Jalen Duren had a standout fantasy season, while Ausar Thompson showed potential but had decreased playing time. Cade Cunningham had a promising start but was plagued by injuries. Looking ahead, there are fantasy outlooks for various players, including Isaiah Stewart, Simone Fontecchio, Jaden Ivey, and Quentin Grimes.
