    The Detroit Pistons begin their new season tonight at 7 p.m. at Little Caesars Arena against the Indiana Pacers on FanDuel Sports Network Detroit, formerly known as Bally Sports Detroit.

    After finishing last season with the NBA’s worst record (14-68) and a 28-game losing streak, the organization spent the summer overhauling it from top to bottom. Former general manager Troy Weaver and head coach Monty Williams were fired and the team introduced Trajan Langdon as the new president of basketball operations and JB Bickerstaff as the new head coach.

    TRENDING: How many games should the Pistons win this season?

    The new front office selected G League forward Ron Holland II with the No. 5 overall pick in June’s draft. Landgon then went to work acquiring productive veterans, including Tobias Harris (free agency), Tim Hardaway Jr. (trade), Malik Beasley (free agency) and Paul Reed (free agency).
