The Pistons practice facility is one of the most recent examples of teams pouring investment into their training centers, which not only bring in potentially lucrative partnerships but also offer community benefits. The complete move downtown was the vision of owner Tom Gores, with the new center bringing basketball and business operations under one roof. It also still provided player privacy while also being a significant community asset to the Detroit neighborhood it calls home. At 185,000 square feet, it’s the largest NBA practice facility and team headquarters.
