Detroit Pistons

Also known as Wyman Diagrams. Created by @taylormetrics on TikTok, where they became a viral trend.

Projected. Rosters, minutes per game and games come from the 2026-27 depth charts (contract book dated 2026-09-10). Each player is drawn from his 2025-26 DPM and style; nobody has played a 2026-27 minute yet.

This version uses Taylormetrics’ Wyman Diagram and Justin Liu’s model and packer. Size is DPM above a −2.0 replacement level to the power 2.2, times minutes per game. Outlines are an estimate: they predict the hand-drawn originals only weakly, so read them as a lean, not a stat. Playoff-adjusted moves each player by his career playoff offense change and playability.
