Ish Smith out 3-6 Weeks

Ish Smith (adductor) out 3-6 weeks

Ish Smith suffered a right adductor muscle tear and coach Dwane Casey said he will be sidelined for 3-6 weeks.

Smith suffered the injury on Wednesday vs. the Bucks. The Pistons don't have much quality depth at point guard, so it's a tough blow for Detroit. With Smith sidelined, Jose Calderon will serve as the primary backup behind Reggie Jackson. Langston Galloway, Bruce Brown and Khyri Thomas could also see some time at PG going forward.

Well dang, an injury to a Detroit PG was kind of expected. But it happened to the "other" PG.

They should have never waived him in favor of signing Calderon's corpse

Ahhh, the hot start where the Pistons exceed expectations followed by injury of a point guard that leads into an early-December slump that hobbles us until February is right on cue.

Return to Detroit Pistons
