Damn. Had a feeling they'd pick him after trading Williams to Phoenix.

I'm guessing we select Lanier because of the family tie.

Poor Chaz….20 minute Mounjaro commercial ruins his TV moment.

Let this put a chip on his shoulder and begin his villian story.

I don't watch college, but it looks like he's a 2.

Do you guys think he'll be in the rotation next season? And how is his defense? I love that he's a catch-and-shoot player (instead of putting on the floor) and works off the ball - perfect to play with Cade.

I read a story weeks ago and already forgot. My guess is great-nephew.

Injuries can happen I guess but don’t see how he sees anything beyond that

Shooting guards that shoot? It’s a whole new pistons era!

We need a rotation 4, but we weren’t getting that in the second.

It's kind of silly to pick for need, especially in the second. You're just going after who is likeliest to be able to be of any value at the next level.

We used to draft guys that can do everything except shoot. Now we drafted one that can shoot and nothing else.

Sure, but 40% on 8 attempts from deep is a LOT of shooting. We will see if it translates and how his d holds up. A low coat flame thrower from deep would be a nice supporting piece though.
