The Detroit Pistons' second-round rookie, Bobi Klintman, has been making waves in the NBA G League with the Motor City Cruise. In a recent game against the Birmingham Squadron, Klintman showcased his potential by scoring a career-high 25 points in just 30 minutes of play. He hit nine of his 13 field goal attempts, including four three-pointers, and added five rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block to his impressive stat line.
Prior to this standout performance, Klintman had played three G League games, averaging nine points with a 44 percent shooting rate. Despite struggling to find his three-point shot earlier in the season, he broke through against the Squadron. The 37th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Klintman has faced challenges, including a calf injury that kept him sidelined during the preseason. Now, he is focusing on his development with the Cruise as he aims for a future role with the Pistons.
