The Detroit Pistons might be going through the worst phase in their history, but their morale is still high and roaring. The management is still finding ways to end the season on high, and the hunt to land a star player is on. Speculations suggest that a star forward might land on the Pistons’ roster in the coming days.
The Detroit Pistons are at the bottom of the Eastern Conference in the NBA with a 2-29 record. They are on a 28-game losing streak which is one of the worst in the history of the league. They are 28th in the NBA when it comes to points scored per game, and they desperately need a scoring forward. Can they find a way to bounce back? Who can they acquire to get things going? Here are three players we think the Detroit Pistons can sign to turn it around this season.
The Toronto Raptors Pascal Siakam Trade to the Detroit Pistons
Cade Cunningham can pair up with the Toronto Raptors #43 to improve the scoring rate of the Pistons. The 29-year-old forward Pascal Siakam has played 30 games this season, and he averages 21.3 points, 5 assists, and 6.7 rebounds per game while shooting 24.1 percent from beyond the arc. His addition would give the Detroit Pistons an upper hand at floor spacing and shot creation.
