The Pistons brought in 25-year old Charlie Villanueva to start at power forward. He is not a power player though but he has a good offensive game. He played in 78 games for the Bucks last season and he averaged 26.9 minutes, 16.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. With more minutes and a more aggressive offense he could average more than 20 points per game this season for the Pistons. 26-year old Jason Maxiell could start on quite a few teams in this league. He played in 78 games for the Pistons last season and he averaged 18.1 minutes, 5.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 0.3 assists per game. 27-year old Chris Wilcox will be #3 in line for minutes at power forward for the Pistons. He played in 62 games for the Thunder and Knicks last season in which he averaged 16.9 minutes, 7.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game. Wilcox could also get some playing time at center when the Pistons want more offense out of the position.
