The 2023–24 Detroit Pistons season was the 83rd season of the franchise, the 76th in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 7th in Downtown Detroit. On April 10, 2023, Dwane Casey resigned from his position as head coach and transitioned to the Pistons' front office.[1][2] This was the Pistons' first and only season under head coach Monty Williams.[3][4] The Pistons finished with the worst overall record in the NBA for the second consecutive season and worst in the franchise's history at 14–68, surpassing the 1979–80 team that finished at 16–66, and missed the playoffs for the fifth consecutive season.[5][6][7]

After the Pistons started the season 2–1, they lost an NBA record 28 games in a row from October 30 to December 30, the longest single-season losing streak and tied for the longest losing streak overall in NBA history.[8] They became the 13th team in NBA history to have a winless month, going 0–15 in November.[9]

Despite having signed a six-year deal with the Pistons, Williams was fired in the following offseason.[10]
