Baynes v Boban: Who is the better backup for the Detroit Pistons?

The signing of Boban Marjanovic creates an interesting logjam at the backup center position, with another former San Antonio big man, Aron Baynes, filling the role of Andre Drummond‘s backup.

Both Boban and Baynes are capable backup centers but there is only room for one of them to receive consistent minutes, so who is the better option?

Looking at the Pistons’ current backup, Baynes was underwhelming in his first season in a Detroit uniform. His scoring output remained consistent at 6.3 points per game and he saw a career high in rebounding at 4.
