Exclusive: Ron Holland sounds off on Pistons’ championship chase, major individual goal

Detroit Pistons forward Ron Holland revealed in an exclusive interview that his primary individual goal for the upcoming season is earning a spot on the NBA All-Defensive team. Reflecting on Detroit's 60-win campaign and subsequent Eastern Conference Semifinals loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Holland stated that the team believes they should have won a championship and are focused on developing playoff habits from the start of the year.

The 21-year-old wing highlighted his synergy with teammate Ausar Thompson as a major factor in Detroit's defense, which ranked second in the NBA last season. The Pistons reshaped their roster over the offseason by acquiring John Collins, Isaiah Joe, and Taurean Prince while re-signing Thompson and All-Star center Jalen Duren to long-term deals alongside franchise point guard Cade Cunningham.
