If one were to simply go by the numbers, Detroit Pistons up-and-comer Marcus Sasser has proven himself ready to break out. He's a dynamic point guard with the per-36 averages and efficiency to not only step into a significant role, but start for a vast majority of NBA teams.
If the current roster holds true to form, then the Pistons will have left the door wide open for Sasser to answer a critical question in 2025-26: Is he as good as the numbers suggest?
Detroit completed a draft-night trade to select Sasser at No. 25 overall in the 2023 NBA Draft.
