Detroit Pistons: What is happening with Saddiq Bey?

For most of the young season, it appeared as though the Detroit Pistons had a Rookie of the Year candidate in Saddiq Bey.

Bey was playing big minutes, knocking down 3-point shots at a high rate and he was playing defense all over the floor.

Bey was never likely to get the reps to be a serious ROY candidate, but he was near the top in scoring, rebounds and 3-point percentage.

Since then, he has disappeared, as Dwane Casey has decided that playing Blake Griffin 39 minutes a game even though he is terrible is a good idea.
