On the very long list of what the Detroit Pistons need, a leader is one. The player assuming that role is none other than Tayshaun Prince. Missing a lot of preseason training and practices due to an injured right knee, the veteran small forward has been upping his game. In his last 3 games against Golden State, Houston and Minnesota he has scored 20, 20 and 29 points. His 1st consecutive...

NBA teams can't officially announce roster moves until Friday morning. Apparently, the Detroit Pistons are going to start with a stunner. In a move that seems to make little sense for either side, the team is expected to announce that they have re-signed free-agent forward Tayshaun Prince to a four-year, 27 million contract. Prince had one of the worst seasons of his career in...

Detroit Pistons small forward Tayshaun Prince is sadly (for me anyways) an unrestricted free agent. With the lockout unofficially over, NBA teams are scurrying to find players and get rosters in place. A few teams have their eye on Prince. It’s been rumored that the Los Angeles Clippers have been in contact with Prince. Teams have been allowed to contact and discuss terms with...

The Pistons have re-signed 31-year old small forward Tayshaun Prince to a 4-year, $27 million dollar contract. Prince played in 78 games (all starts) for the Pistons last year and he averaged 32.8 minutes, 14.1 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game. He has now played in 661 games (622 starts) in his career with the Pistons and he is averaging 33.4 minutes, 12.9 points,...

The NBA is officially in a lockout, which is bad news for everyone that is a fan of the NBA. We do not really know when the players and owners will get this collective bargaining agreement settled, and there is nothing left to do but hope it gets done quickly. In the mean time let’s take a look at the top five unrestricted free agents of the 2011 summer. It may not be as exciting...

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- How well are things going for the Pistons right now? Ben Wallace even made it to the free-throw line Friday night. Wallace missed both shots -- his first attempts of the season -- but it didn't really matter because the Pistons beat the New Jersey Nets, 109-92. Detroit, which led by as many as 30, has now won four straight after a 4-20 start to the...

31-year old small forward Tayshaun Prince did his usual solid, but not great job, in 2010-11 for the Pistons. Prince played in 78 games (all starts) for the Pistons last year and he averaged 32.8 minutes, 14.1 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game. He has now played in 661 games (622 starts) in his career with the Pistons and he is averaging 33.4 minutes, 12.9 points, 4...

Pistons forward Tayshaun Prince is out of the lineup again because of a family matter.

Current NBA free agent, and possibly former Detroit Pistons small forward, Tayshaun Prince threw out the first pitch for the Single-A Lexington Legends. Prince, a southpaw, has a frame that would translate very well to face hitters. He's 6'8" tall and has a 7'2" wingspan. So, in other words, he'd practically be putting the ball in the catcher's glove...

Tay Tay So I know it took awhile, but finally…here it is. The end of my 3 part series, and as I always say, save the best for last. I’ll be profiling my favorite Piston this time, Tayshaun Prince. Born just 7 days after yours truly, on February 28, 1980, Prince grew up in Compton, CA. He played college ball at Kentucky where he averaged 13.2 games. He was drafted in the...

 I am not making the case that Tayshaun Prince in not a great player, nor that he does not have any value. He is an excellent offensive threat, and he plays very good defense on the wing. However, the Pistons are a team in a need of a rebuild and since they missed the boat on trading his expiring contract this past off-season, I do not see why they would want to bring him back now...

Unrestricted free agent Tayshaun Prince will remain with the  Detroit Pistons thru 2016, thanks his brand new shiny 4yr/$27M contract GM Joe Dumars offered him today. Tayshaun will be entering his 10th consecutive season with Pistons and looks like he will end his career where he started it. There were very few Prince supporters after last season and it was all but a done deal...

Tayshaun Prince continues to labor on his sore left knee. Prince has walked with a slight limp throughout the first games of the season. After Friday's loss at Boston, Prince said he planned to soldier on as long as he felt he wasn't causing more harm than good.

Tayshaun Prince, an unrestricted free agent, averaged 14.1 points and 4.2 rebounds last season.

In less than a month a quite intriguing player will be absolutely free. He is 6-9, he's got long arms and has been selected several times for the NBA All-Defensive Second Team. He has a championship ring and an Olympic Gold medal. He used to play for quite a powerful team in the East but now all his teammates have been leaving town and have left him quite alone there. Let'...

Detroit Pistons forward Tayshaun Prince will sign a four-year, $27 million deal to remain with the club, Yahoo! Sports reported on Thursday. The 23rd overall pick of the 2002 draft, Prince averaged 14.1 points and 4.2 rebounds last season. He has played his entire career with the Pistons. Prince, who is an unrestricted free agent, received interest from the Chicago Bulls, San Antonio...

Tayshaun Prince would be a nice addition to most any team with a need at small forward. But not this team. Not with this fan base. Not in this era of the NBA.

Our resident NBA nerd is on vacation this week; in a much warmer place. However, being out of the country hasn’t stopped him from being on top of the news. He’s got a lot to say on what’s been going on with the league this week. Detroit Pistons re-sign SF Tayshaun Prince to 4-year, $27 million contract I thought for sure Prince was going to move on in his career and not want...

A person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press that the Detroit Pistons will re-sign Tayshaun Prince and Jonas Jerebko. The person spoke Thursday on the condition of anonymity because the deals have not been announced. Prince is expected to sign a four year, $27-million dollar contract and Friday. He is an unrestricted free agent. Jerebko will be back for a $16...

(When the lockout ends, the Miami Heat will be limited to no more than the mid-level exception to spend in free agency, which should fall somewhere in the $5.5 million range. That’s if it exists at all in a new collective-bargaining agreement. Otherwise, there might only be the veteran minimum to spend, which would be roughly $1 million for 2011-12. This is the eighth in a...

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- Greg Monroe had 20 points and 12 rebounds and the Detroit Pistons won their season-high third straight game with a 99-92 victory over the New Jersey Nets on Wednesday night. Jonas Jerebko added 16 points and Tayshaun Prince had 15 as the Pistons snapped a seven-game road losing streak. Ben Gordon, playing for the first time in 11 games, added 14 points for Detroit...

Let me preface this entire post with this statement: I love Joe Dumars, the player. I love Joe Dumars, the GM that created the "Going to Work" Pistons that won the 2004 NBA championship. This Joe Dumars is gone. Now, Pistons fans are stuck with the Joe Dumars who can't let go of those same 2004 Pistons, save for the only one with some game left (no offense, Big Ben). Earlier...

DETROIT - Tayshaun Prince is coming back, proving those foolish doubters wrong. Shame on all of you! Like the guy...
