Detroit Pistons
Draft Picks: Henry Ellenson No. 18, Michael Gbinije No. 49
Ellenson has the size and shooting range to mix well with Pistons center Andre Drummond. Ellenson’s range will draw defenders out to give Drummond free range in the post.
Ellenson’s biggest weakness is his defense, which should surprise no one for a young prospect, but would be protected by Drummond’s prowess on that side of the ball. Either way, even if he is somewhat of a project, Ellenson to the Pistons is one of the better fits of this draft.
Gbinije is a high character guy, who shoot relatively well who will add guard depth for the Pistons.
Grade: B
Next: Golden State Warrios
