Spotlight shifts to rookies as intriguing Pistons training camp gets underway

Just like that, the Pistons are back in training camp.

After almost nine months without playing a competitive game, the Pistons are rounding back into form by starting mandatory COVID testing and doing one-on-one individual workouts with a player and a coach this week.

With all the new additions to the roster, there aren’t many certainties and probably more questions than answers, but one of the intriguing things to watch is the role that first-round pick Killian Hayes will play.

Hayes is only 19, but having played three seasons professionally, including last season in Germany, he could be positioned to start early in the season or to at least get some significant playing time.
