When Jaden Ivey broke his leg last season, it dealt a devastating blow to both him and the Detroit Pistons.
Ivey and the team were dealt another one when he suffered a different injury in the preseason that set him back once again, costing him the first 15 games of the regular season.
Since then, Ivey has played well at times but has yet to make a consistent impact, especially on offense, where he has been more tentative than we are used to seeing him. Ivey hasn’t been attacking close outs or blowing by defenders and has instead relied on shooting more from long range as part of his shot diet.
