Third-year wing Ron Holland joined him in Colorado this summer, and the two hiked and ran on a track at a nearby school in the mountains. Holland hadn’t been in the mountains before, Cunningham said.

Mike Curtis: Cade Cunningham has arrived for his 2nd annual “817 Day,” a celebration of his hometown in Arlington, TX. The 2-time #Pistons All-Star will lead the ribbon cutting ceremony of a newly renovated basketball court here at George Stevens Park shortly.

Elsewhere, within league circles, there was palpable chatter about the Pistons hoping to get involved in the Antetokounmpo trade to land Tyler Herro, while dangling assets such as Isaiah Stewart, Ron Holland, Duncan Robinson, and draft compensation, league sources told HoopsHype. In addition, the Los Angeles Lakers were linked with trade interest in Kel’el Ware over the past couple of days, sources said.
The Free Press has confirmed with multiple people within the league not permitted to speak publicly that the Pistons have been involved in discussions regarding Tyler Herro. And though it remains to be seen if the deal will get across the finish line, three of their key role players – Isaiah Stewart, Duncan Robinson and Ron Holland – are candidates to be moved in such a trade.
As the adage goes, it takes money to make money. The Pistons' assets include all of their first-round picks, including No. 21 in Tuesday's draft, a trove of second-round picks and several good players on contracts that can be easily moved.
Hunter Patterson: Trajan says he believes Ron Holland losing his spot in the rotation will motivate him over the summer and thinks Ron will improve next season because of that frustration. Noted how helpful Ron was to the Pistons winning 60 games during the regular season.

Omari Sankofa II: JB on the convo with Holland when he didn't play in Round 1: "You just have to stay ready. We talked to the guys that these are quarters, games, series, roles and responsibilities are going to change. Whatever skill you have is going to become necessary at some point."
Y’all kind of remind us of the ’90s, 2000s Pistons, man. Kind of our era. Big, physical, don’t take no shit. Does that mindset come from just that Detroit feel, or is that something y’all brought back on y’all own? Jalen Duren: Yeah, honestly, a lot of people would think we just try to copy the earlier teams Detroit had. But I think, to a man, that’s just how we feel. That’s just how we play. You know what I mean? Guys like Stew, me, Ausar, Ron Holland, that’s just who we are as characters. And it came together. And like I said, I’m going to go back to JB, man. His character and his mentality kind of fit, and it gelled with everything. So it was like a match made in heaven.
