The Detroit Pistons fell off in 2016-17, winning 37 games and placing 10th in the conference after a promising 44-win campaign in 2015-16. Detroit will look to bounce back and make the playoffs once again in 2017-18, which should be doable given how much weaker the Eastern Conference has gotten with players like Jimmy Butler, Paul George and Paul Millsap heading out West.
The Pistons’ schedule for the 2017-18 season can be viewed here.
Here are a few games to watch out for:
November 27, @ Boston: Avery Bradley was loved by Celtics fans, and should receive a warm welcome in his first game back in TD Garden. Plus, Marcus Morris and Aron Baynes will be facing their former team. This game will air at 7:30 p.m. ET and will not be nationally televised.
March 26, vs. Los Angeles Lakers: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope was loved by Pistons fans; many hoped that the team would re-sign the defensive-minded shooting guard. Now, he’s a Laker. This will be his first trip back to Detroit. He and Avery Bradley going head to head should be exciting for Detroit fans.
