From Detroit Free Press, 3/8/23
"With so many players on the injury report, the Pistons had to dig deep for contributions on Tuesday. Omoruyi, who signed a 10-day contract on Friday, was the biggest beneficiary from the glut of available minutes.
The 6-foot-7 Nigerian forward made an impact with his hustle and defense. Four of his six rebounds came on the offensive end, enabling him to get to the line and make four of five free throw attempts. He also knocked down a 3-pointer early in the second quarter and displayed great recognition with a nice dump-off pass to Bagley for a dunk that same quarter.
Omoruyi, who has spent most of this season in the G League with the Oklahoma City Blue, looked like he belonged on the floor. The Pistons have lacked toolsy forwards who can consistently make effort plays, and Diallo’s injury leaves them even more deficient. Omoruyi has a chance to further establish himself before his deal expires. "
