A solid veteran
If anything has become clear after watching his last two seasons Detroit Pistons and many other examples in the past is that to make a rebuild in conditions it is necessary to have quality veterans. His presence figures with locker room experience It is important because they establish customs among beginners and establish a standard of professionalism.
However, items like Bojan Bogdanovic They are not so focused on what they can give off the field, but rather on the parquet. The Croatian has shown throughout his career that he is a sober player, without big peaks but neither with very sharp dips. Simply put, someone who has 13 points under his belt every night and knows how to adapt to almost any role. If the situation makes him more important with the ball, ghost it performs correctly. And if it is necessary to be more of an executor, the Croatian responds positively.
Although he is naturally entering the twilight of his career, Bogdanovic can still deliver some interesting seasons, something the Pistons need to cultivate. The former Real Madrid player is entering the final year of his contract, which is very important if it doesn’t work out, because Detroit will be able to release him easily.
What Bogdanovic Can Bring to the Detroit Pistons
During the 2021-2022 season, the Detroit Pistons were the second-worst team in the entire NBA in true shooting percentage (True Shot %) with 53.3%, a metric that gives more importance on the three shot rather than the two shot and that reflects the quality of his outside line in that regard. Also, they had it Worse effective field goal percentage (eFG%) at 49.4% and on average a 34.5% on shots inside catch & shoot.
In conclusion, Michigan was the worst team in the league at making jump shots and from beyond the beginning A circumstance that puts them in an awkward position when it comes to developing their work. With Cade Cunningham As the pivot of the game and with Jaden Ivey next to him, it is necessary to strengthen the contribution from the three point. Today the outside shot frees up the paint in such a way that if they increased the danger from there, the framework for the Pistons’ projects would be better.
That’s what Detroit intends to contribute Bojan Bogdanovic. The Croat averaged a 59.9% in TS, 55.2% in eFG% and 38.8% in shooting triples. Some stuff that would make him the team’s best shooter according to last year’s stats, by far.
Add the shot ghost That’s not the only thing the Pistons hope he brings, as he can also produce optimally on the ball (44th percentile in direct blocks) and move without it (54th in interceptions). It will also give them the option to suggest more mobile lineups with the Croatian at four.
