While the Detroit Pistons have no salary cap space to sign one of the big free agent point guards (Kyrie Irving & Kemba Walker), a lot of attention has been paid to the second tier free agents namely Derrick Rose and Seth Curry.
However, I’m here to make the argument for a different approach, one which would be contingent on bringing back one of Detroit’s most beloved backups the past few years, Ish Smith.
Although Smith did not end up having a good year statistically last season, he’s still ended up with the third best offensive rating on the team per NBA.
