The Detroit Pistons are making everyone earn minutes, except Blake Griffin.

The Detroit Pistons hired Dwane Casey in part to change the losing culture of the team, but he is currently fostering one by continuing to play Blake Griffin big minutes.

Casey has said time and time again that guys like Sekou Doumbouya, Isaiah Stewart and Saddiq Bey have to “earn” minutes and I totally agree with this philosophy.
