Pistons NBA Draft Recap and Who Actually Plays for the Them Now, Plus the Dumpster Fire that is the Lions

Author: Matt Henkel November 24, 2020 Duration: 1:03:10

Troy Weaver wasted—and we cannot emphasize this enough—zero time putting his stamp on the Pistons franchise by making a number of trades before, during, and after the NBA Draft, that landed us four picks inside the top-40. Between the rooks, the trades, and the start of free agency, who actually plays in Detroit right now?
