DeMarre Carroll brings shooting, defense

Carroll was the best perimeter defender on one of the best defenses in the NBA last year. He also provides the size and 3-point shooting the Pistons are looking for.

The Detroit Pistons have prioritized signing a starting small forward in free agency. With that in mind, Detroit Bad Boys will preview a number of possible candidates the Pistons could target with free agency set to begin at midnight Wednesday. First up -- DeMarre Carroll.

DeMarre Carroll might have blossomed later than most, but he's no flash in the pan. He's coming off his third consecutive good-to-great season and brings with him a skill set that could perfectly match what the Detroit Pistons are looking for in a new starting small forward.
