Since being drafted 42nd overall in the 2021 NBA Draft, Isaiah Livers has been a mystery for Pistons fans. The 23-year-old underwent foot surgery in April after his college season ended.

In the regular season, he was briefly cleared to play in mid-December before quickly being shut down again due to his foot. The rookie only played in one of Detroit's first 60 games this season.
