Duke Brennan working out for Detroit Pistons as interest heats up
The former Wildcat center is beginning to gain some interest from teams at the next level.
Former Villanova center Duke Brennan is beginning to gain plenty of heat from teams ahead of the 2026 NBA Draft. Brennan’s agency shared that the big man will work out for the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday. The 6-foot-10 center spent last season at Villanova.
He averaged 12. 4 points and 10. 3 rebounds per game while shooting 65.
8% from the floor. Brennan tied a program record with 14 double-doubles as he was a driving force at the Wildcats returning to the NCAA Tournament. Brennan showed an interest in returning to school as he entered the transfer portal following the announcement that the NCAA could be moving toward a five-year eligibility rule change — although it felt like a long shot.
