Why Pistons fans should care

Built for Detroit's actual problems.

National draft coverage doesn't care about Detroit's roster. We do — that's the entire job.

PistonsDraft runs every prospect through a Pistons-specific Fit Score, weighted for Cade spacing, defensive identity, bench pull-up creation, and frontcourt need. The Big Board, Targets, Intel, and the Draft Room all feed each other.

A prospect can be good and still be a weird Pistons fit. That's the whole point of this report.
