Duncan Robinson’s 3s, passing have been vital centerpieces to Pistons’ 3-0 start

Duncan Robinson's exceptional perimeter shooting and passing have been central to the Detroit Pistons' 3-0 start to the season. Robinson is averaging 19.7 points per game and is tied with Luka Dončić for the league lead with 15 made three-pointers, shooting an NBA-best 53.6 percent from deep among high-volume shooters. Following Detroit's 106-93 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, head coach J.B. Bickerstaff praised Robinson's off-ball gravity and shot creation.

With key teammates Jalen Duren and Ausar Thompson sidelined with injuries, Robinson has stepped up as the team's secondary scorer behind Cade Cunningham. Bickerstaff has utilized Robinson creative screening actions to generate open shots and secondary playmaking opportunities, including lobs to John Collins. Detroit currently ranks third in the NBA in team three-point percentage as they prepare to face the New York Knicks.
