If you have been watching the Detroit Pistons in the NBA Playoffs over the last few weeks, chances are you have seen some familiar faces sitting in the stands and courtside. On top of the countless other celebrities attending Pistons games, there have been several members of the Detroit Lions, too.
We have seen quarterback Jared Goff, running back Jahmyr Gibbs, defensive end Aidan Hutchinson, and wide receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams all in attendance, a trend I would expect to continue for as long as the Pistons continue their playoff run. Side note—it really is cool how the Detroit sports teams support one another, proving yet again that Detroit is an S-tier sports town.

With all of that said, seeing so many of the Lions players in posts like this one from the NBA Twitter account, it got me thinking—who is the biggest star on the Lions right now? And because the term star can be interpreted in a multitude of ways, let’s make the parameters for this discussion as who is the biggest household name? As in, who would a casual NFL fan living in a different state recognize on the Lions?
My answer: I am going with Jahmyr Gibbs. On the field, Gibbs has quickly cemented himself as one of the most dynamic offensive players in the entire league, and someone that puts fear in the hearts of defensive coaches everywhere. And off of the field he has inked deals with globally known brands such as Jordan and Sony.
What about you? Who do you think is the biggest name on the Lions? Let us know in the comments below.
