Frustrating free agent whiff coming back to haunt the Pistons

The Detroit Pistons ended up signing Caris LeVert after missing out on Nickeil Alexander-Walker, a whiff they may regret.

LeVert has become the scapegoat after a couple of bad games, which isn’t completely fair to him, though he was –24 last night after going 1-of-10 from the field.

He’s had a few solid outings for the Pistons, and at some point, he’ll break out and have a big game, so it’s too early in the season to call LeVert a problem. But I will say that his defense has been surprisingly bad, which is something I didn’t fully expect, as he’s been a traffic cone on the perimeter.
