Finally! We find our way to the Detroit Pistons I am sure everyone wants to talk about. These are the players with the most potential for a mid- and long-term future with the franchise — the Foundational Pieces.
But, what is a “Foundational Piece?” These are the guys I feel are the foundation upon which the rest of the roster is going to be built. While it’s obvious by now that this tier is Beef Stew, Saddiq, and Cade, they all fill in different parts of the foundation for the Pistons.
I want to be clear that I am not saying all these guys are going to be stars, much less perennial All-Stars or all-NBA guys.
