Detroit Pistons: Is Ron Holland II Due For A Breakout Season?

But for Holland to continue his upward trajectory and establish an even more concrete role for himself in the Pistons’ rotation that lasts into the playoffs, the G-League Ignite product will need to assert himself as a more reliable, consistent three-point shooter. Detroit does not necessarily expect for Holland to match the efficiency of Robinson or Joe from downtown, but they will need for him to possess reasonable perimeter gravity so that opposing defenses do not willingly leave him open from beyond the arc. If that improvement materializes, Holland will help create more space for Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren to operate in the paint, and he’ll benefit the squad even more as a somewhat dangerous shooter from the outside, which would be a win-win for both parties.
