Detroit Pistons Sign Chimezie Metu To A 10-Day Contract | What should Pistons fans expect?

Hey guys what’s going on Anthony here with pistons stock hope you guys are having a great day so far before we jump into today’s video while you’re probably here wanted to give you guys a quick update with the injury report for tonight’s game against the Indiana

Pacers we have a tweet from one of our friends Corey Woods over mlive.com Corey says Asar Thompson illness Isaiah Stewart right hamstring strain and Quinton grm right knee contusion will miss tonight’s game vers the Pacers he also goes on to say that s fio with left great toe contusion and T

Gibson right hamstring hornus are questionable to play tonight against the Pacers quick little update for you guys um injury update for tonight’s game and why I think it’s important to highlight that is because Isaiah Stewart has a right hamstring trrain that he suffered against the Boston Celtics and the

Pistons just made a 10day signing with shame metsu now he’s a forward Center as the Pistons State uh he’s 6922 he’s a 5-year NBA veteran and has appeared in 246 career games 31 starts for the San Antonio Spurs Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Suns he was a second round pick in the 2018 NBA

Draft 49th overall metsu holds career averages of 5.6 points 3.3 rebounds 0.7 assists and 0.4 blocks in 12 minutes a game metsu has appeared in 37 games five starts for the Phoenix Suns this season averaging Five Points a game three rebounds and a half assist in 12 minutes

A game he also played his college ball at the University of Southern California from 2015 to 2018 where he was named First Team Al Pack 12 in 2018 and second Team all Pack 12 in mostr player in 2017 so that is some cool information about your latest 10day

Signing chame metsu now like the Pistons did state if you do pull up his player profile over at basketball reference 6922 he’s going to be 27 in a couple of days so he’s a a little bit older uh 37 games this year Five Points a game three

Rebounds half an assist 50% from the field 29.4 from three 88.4 from the free throw line he has a 56 and a half% of an efficiency field goal percentage and a 13.9 PR in one wind share this season with the Suns now when you look at him

69 225 power forward Center player that your Detroit Pistons just signed and I mentioned at the top of this video Isaiah Stewart got injured and all of a sudden we’re signing another power forward that is a similar build similar skill set to Isaiah Stewart um and I

Think that’s the reason why the Pistons made this deal metsu was very similar to Isaiah Stewart just build wise um not the same play style metu I think is a little bit quicker on his feet um has really good touch around the rim um can hit a three-point point shot not as high

As Stewart obviously Stewart is the better three-point shooter but if you do leave him open he’s going to make a shot 29 and a half% from three this season with the Suns but I think at the end of the day this is a depth signing for the Detroit Pistons because of all the

Injuries that they have had over the past couple of games who knows how how long Isaiah Stewart is going to be out uh do the Pistons shut him down for the remainder of the season I don’t know um um it it’s a signing I think that you

Know it does deserve a little bit of attention we we we can talk about it I don’t think this is a a replacement for anyone on the roster I don’t think this is a James wisman replacement even though he does play center he’s an undersiz Center if you do want to play

Him Center I think James wisman will still continue to get backup center minutes uh behind Jaylen durran I don’t think this is a replacement for Isaiah Stewart I think Isaiah Stewart is a better player than metsu but I think at the end of the day the Pistons wanted to

Make a signing um so they don’t get completely obliterated for the remainder of the season and he could be a guy that maybe the Pistons sign for the remainder of the Season past his 10-day contract maybe they want more depth at that power forward Center position and I think

Metsu can provide that um I I I do think he’s a player when you watch him um gu said good touch really good at cutting can dunk can catch lobs can hit threes just defensively he’s not um a Lockdown Defender but he’s passable at

The end of the day but I want to know what you guys think of this signing with metu I’ve kind of give you my thoughts I think it’s just a depth signing um because Stuart’s injured but let me know Down Below in the comments section what you think of this 10day contract for

Metsu do you like the signing was there another player maybe you possibly would have given a 10day with all of these injuries um I’ll talk to you guys down below in the comment section like always hope you guys are staying safe take care and I will catch you guys in the next video [Applause] [Applause] Peace
