Detroit starts the new season with a game against Chicago at home in Little Caesar Arena. Fans can hardly be satisfied with last season, in which their club had only 20 wins out of 72 games. However, 13 of those victories were in the home stadium, so Dwayne Casey’s team could be a big problem for more ambitious clubs. The match is scheduled for 00:00 UK time.
Possible line-ups for the match:
Detroit Pistons:
G – Saben Lee; G – Killian Hayes; F – Josh Jackson; F – Jerami Grant; C – Kelly Olynyk.
Chicago Bulls:
G – Lonzo Ball; G – Zach LaVine; F – Demar DeRozan; F – Patrick Williams; C – Nikola Vucevic.
Detroit Pistons:
Detroit has lost all the players who have been pulling for the Pistons lately. Now the Pistons will rely on young players. There’s no telling what that will bring, but the team from Detroit has looked good in the preseason. For example, Dwayne Casey’s team beat Philadelphia (112-108) in their last game.
It looks like Jeremy Grant will be Detroit’s leader this season. The 27-year-old was a leader of the team at the end of last season. In the preseason, Jeremy once again made himself known with his performance. Josh Jackson, Kally Olynyk, and Trae Lyles will assist Grant.
Chicago Bulls:
Chicago has really stepped up. It’s a completely different team now. At the end of last season Nikola Vucevic joined the Bulls, the former Orlando leader.
In addition, Alex Caruso joined the Bulls from the Lakers and Lonzo Ball from New Orleans. There is also Demar Derozan who spent the last season with San Antonio. And we shouldn’t forget about Zach LaVine. This bunch is quite capable of surprising and finally making the playoffs.
Chicago has won every game in the preseason, beating Cleveland, Memphis, and New Orleans. Will Detroit be next?
