The Detroit Pistons are a completely different team with a healthy Reggie Jackson. Look no further than the difference in its play from 2015-16 to 2016-17. The Pistons went from an up-and-coming playoff contender, when Jackson was healthy and leading the Pistons’ offense, to a team that looked utterly lost without him.
But there is good news. Jackson is feeling much better and should be ready to go by training camp.
“One hundred percent would always be great to feel, but this year I just want to be better than I was the day before,” Jackson said Wednesday at the practice facility in Auburn Hills.
