After waiting a week between games two and three, the Detroit Pistons are playing a preseason finale on the latter half of a back-to-back. I’m not sure how we got here, but it is where we find ourselves.
If I were a betting man, that would lead me to think that we might see less of the traditional starters than usual. Ausar Thompson, who is leading the NBA in minutes so far this preseason at 30.6 minutes per game, might actually even get some extended rest.
Game Vitals
When: 8 p.m. ET
Where: American Airlines Center, Dallas, Texas
Watch: Bally Sports Detroit
Analysis
However, the selfish fan in me wants to root for running back yesterday’s starting lineup of the rookie Asuar with Cade Cunningham, Killian Hayes, Isaiah Stewart and Jalen Duren.
