Luke Kennard has played in 136 games for the Detroit Pistons in the last two years. Kennard has only started in just 19 of those games.
Kennard was regulated to playing the role of the sixth man for the Pistons this past season and made strides as the season progressed. However, many fans believe Dwane Casey and the Pistons may be holding Kennard back in what he could actually be.
The Pistons got a taste of this in Kennard’s first-ever playoff experience against the Milwaukee Bucks this past season. Superstar Blake Griffin was out the lineup the first two games due to a lingering knee injury, which made Casey insert Kennard into the starting lineup.
