Summary
The Pistons fell short in their Summer League opener, losing 101-93 to the 76ers without ever leading, but rookie point guard Ebuka Okorie shined with 20 points, 4 assists, and 2 steals — proving why the team drafted him first in the 2026 NBA Draft. Coach Scalzi praised Okorie’s growth and mental toughness, calling him a true gamer who thrives under pressure. With a day to regroup, the Pistons face the Cavaliers — also seeking their first win — in their next Summer League matchup.
