Since trading for him, Dennis Smith Jr has only played 20 games for the Detroit Pistons. He has not been the asset I initially thought he would be, but he has shown improvement since his stints in New York and Dallas.
While he is averaging the lowest points per game of his career for the Detroit Pistons, he is also getting the fewest minutes he’s ever received. Despite the drop in playing time, Smith has shown improvement in almost every major category aside from scoring.
