Construction on the $25 million Wayne State Fieldhouse for WSU's men's and women's basketball teams on the west side of its athletic complex began in the summer of 2019 and was completed in October of 2021.  The 70,000 square-foot arena near the intersection of Warren and Trumbull avenues with seating capacity for approximately 3,000 fans, office space and locker room areas for both WSU's men's and women's basketball teams, a concessions area and other ancillary spaces. Seating capacity in the new facility will more than double the current 1,131 capacity of Matthaei's main gym.

The Detroit Pistons are supporting Wayne State's efforts to maximize usage of the new facility through a basketball partnership that would include bringing an NBA G League Affiliate to Detroit and playing its home games in the new WSU arena.  The organization will also work with Wayne State officials to host Pistons summer camps and clinics, possible MHSAA state high school games, AAU games and other basketball tournaments in the new basketball arena.

The G League serves as the NBA's developmental league preparing players, coaches, officials, trainers and front-office staff for NBA positions while acting as the league's research and development laboratory.
