At the height of the Pistons’ woes a couple seasons ago, they lost 28 straight games and had struggles across the board. The Pistons starting lineup was a mess that whole season, but most of the original starters - Cade Cunningham, Ausar Thompson, Isaiah Stewart, and Jalen Duren - remain on the team. The one notable exception, who was cut halfway through the 2023-24 season was Killian Hayes. Despite his struggles in Detroit, Hayes has now found another chance in the NBA with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Killian Hayes is one of the Pistons’ biggest regrets
For Pistons fans, Hayes is a memory they’d much rather forget.
