NBA Mock Draft 2.0: Ja Morant continues to rise; Cam Reddish falls
15. Detroit Pistons – Nickeil Alexander-Walker, G, Virginia Tech
The Detroit Pistons are coming off a regular season in which they did just enough to make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference. However, they’ll like be swept by the Bucks in the first round, in large part to losing Blake Griffin to injury.
However, the Pistons have a big need at the two-guard position, and I don’t think many would argue with that sentiment. While taking Nickeil Alexander-Walker won’t be the quick fix that the team would hope for, he is a project that could eventually develop in the being the answer.
NAW has good size for his position, and has shown the ability to play multiple positions at the next level.
