Stuckey has had a solid start to the 2013-14 season despite suffering a broken thumb before the season started. After a year where he averaged his lowest points per game and field goal percentage since his rookie season, he has bounced back, putting up career numbers and leading the Pistons in scoring. He is currently shooting 47 percent overall, the highest mark of his career, along with 16.2 points per game.
Detroit started the season loaded with depth in their backcourt, but Will Bynum is out indefinitely with a strained hip and Chauncey Billups is missing time as he deals with his own knee tendonitis troubles.
