EDGE Analysis

The Pistons were plus-15 with Caldwell-Pope on the court Tuesday, a mark eight points greater than anybody else on the team. After shooting a respectable-but-not-spectacular 34.5 percent from three-point range last season, Caldwell-Pope can't be relied upon to consistently shoot so efficiently, but he nonetheless is poised to make strides in his third NBA season. Look for Caldwell-Pope to see more than 30 minutes per game next to point man Reggie Jackson, whose penetration ability should present plenty of opens looks for the shooting guard.
