Detroit Summer League

Times are a changin in Detroit.  Gone are Chauncey Billups and Rasheed Wallace.  Enter in Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva.   They draft three youngsters to go along with the newly acquired in hopes of quickly getting back to the conference finals. 

15th overall pick Austin Daye did not dissappoint.  He averaged 17 points and 8.8 rebounds.  He made some threes, although he hit less than 30%  of them.  They got a good player at the 15th pick.

Speaking of pick for the value, second round and 35th overall DeJaun Summers was the leading scorer in summer league for the Pistons.  18points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, and 1 block per game. 

Another second round pick, Jonas Jerebko,  averaged 12points, 6 rebounds and 2 steals.  They may have found 2 players in the second round who will contribute this year.  That is a rare feat.

  1. I can't wait to see what the Pistons will be able to do with all these potentially great players. Maybe a few years from now, going to the finals could be in sight.
