Stanley Johnson excelling in new role with the Detroit Pistons

Stanley Johnson has seemingly been looking for a place on the Detroit Pistons roster since he was selected with the eighth overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft.

He was in the starting lineup and he came off the bench for former head coach and president of basketball operations, Stan Van Gundy. Neither seemed to work for Johnson under the past regime.

He’s now done both under new head coach Dwane Casey.

Being with the starting unit was not working out for him. He had just become too much of a liability on offense.
