Everyone got an opportunity in the Detroit Pistons’ Summer League finale against the San Antonio Spurs — a 96-84 loss to the San Antonio Spurs at Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.
Fourteen of the 15 players on the roster logged at least 10 minutes. The lone exception was Ron Holland, who sat for the Pistons final two games following a strong performance through the first three. Four players scored in double figures, led by John Ukomadu’s 12 points. Second-round pick Chaz Lanier scored 11 points and knocked down three of his five attempts from 3, and Tolu Smith and Trevor Keels each added 10 points.
Two-time SEC Defensive Player of the Year Zakai Ziegler, a Tennessee alumnus like Lanier, got the start over two-way guard Daniss Jenkins and tallied six points and a team-high five assists.
The Pistons opened the game with a 12-0 run before going cold, finishing the night 7-for-26 (26.9%) from 3. They finished their Summer League slate at 3-2, and got strong performances from Holland, Jenkins and others.
