Detroit Pistons: 2017-18 player grades for Langston Galloway

Final grade

Galloway came into this season with all sorts of potential. Ultimately, he fell quite short of those expectations. His shooting left much to be desired, as was previously mentioned. He is getting a fresh start with new head coach Casey that he needs to make the most of. His size and skill-set give him the ability to be a combo guard off the bench. However, he will need to realize those abilities.

There were games this season where Galloway showed that he can be the first guard off the bench. However, he had far too many games where he showed he shouldn’t see the floor. In one of his higher scoring games this season against the Toronto Raptors in October, he was extremely inefficient. He got his 16 points on 5-for-15 shooting from the field. His inefficiency is one of the biggest factors that worked against him.

If he is able to have more games like the ones on the previous slide, he’ll quickly make this season fade from people’s memories. His shooting touch is there and he has good form. He just needs to improve his consistency. Galloway wasn’t this team’s worst player, but he was far from its best.
