Team Impact Index

Player Name Role Tier MPG Usage Tier PPG RPG APG STK Impact Index* Notes Awards
Bailey Howell Primary Offensive Anchor 35.1 High 21.6 10.1 2.7 0 17.2 Led the team in scoring and rebounding for the 1963–64 Pistons; widely considered the top player on the roster that season because he “didn’t have to play center, which allowed him more freedom” on offense.  AS
Ray Scott Primary Rebounder / Two-Way Big 37.1 High-Moderate 17.6 13.5 3.1 0 17.1 Team’s rebounding leader by a wide margin — anchored the frontcourt with heavy minutes and interior presence.   
Don Ohl Secondary Wing Scorer 33.3 High-Moderate 17.3 2.5 3.2 0 11.5 Provided consistent wing scoring and secondary creation; his importance is underlined by his All-Star selection alongside Howell.  AS
Reggie Harding Interior Big / Energy Big 29.7 Moderate 11.0 10.5 1.3 0 11.4 As a young 21-year-old center, offered solid frontcourt depth, rebounding and occasional scoring — valuable given the team’s rough season.   
Johnny Egan Lead Guard / Playmaker 34.9 Moderate 11.1 2.6 4.8 0 9.3 Led the team in assists per game — served as main ball-handler / facilitator when healthy.   
Bob Ferry Reserve Center / Scoring Big 20.6 Moderate-Low 10.6 5.8 1.3 0 8.9 Offered quality minutes off the bench at center; added scoring and size in relief of the starters.   
Jackie Moreland Bench Forward / Role-Playing PF 22.8 Moderate-Low 9.1 5.2 1.6 0 7.95 Provided stable frontcourt depth and solid contributions with limited minutes — useful as a rotational big.   
Donnie Butcher Backup Guard / Secondary Ball-Handler 29.9 Low-Moderate 8.6 5.0 3.4 0 8.5 Versatile role as backup point guard — contributed across scoring, rebounding and playmaking when called on.   
Dave DeBusschere Limited Sample Forward/Big 20.3 Low 8.6 7.0 1.5 0 8.55 Played only 15 games — small sample. But in those games, showed decent rebounding and scoring — hinting at future potential.   
Willie Jones Reserve Guard 20.0 Low 8.2 3.3 2.2 0 6.85 Rotational guard providing occasional scoring and ball-handling when starters rested.   
Larry Staverman Spot PF / Limited-Minute Role 12.8 Low 5.7 3.5 0.6 0 4.9 Minimal minutes, but provided some scoring and frontcourt depth in his limited role.   
Darrall Imhoff Depth Center / Backup Big 15.0 Low 4.8 4.9 1.0 0 5.35 Backup big with modest production; provided size and depth in a season where the Pistons overall struggled.   
Eddie Miles Bench Guard / Developmental Piece 13.5 Low 5.4 1.6 1.0 0 4.0 Very limited role; likely more developmental than key contributor in this season.   
Bob Duffy Fringe Backcourt / Short-Rotation Guard 14.4 Low 5.1 1.3 1.8 0 4.1 Minimal impact — occasional bench guard depth with limited production.   
Kevin Loughery One-Game Depth Guard / Cup-of-Coffee 2.0 Minimal 2.0 0.0 0.0 0 1.0 Played only one game; no real contribution to team’s season.
