11. Detroit Pistons (via New York) – Bennedict Mathurin, F, Arizona

Making a trade down with the Knicks, the Detroit Pistons have already added Cam Reddish and Obi Toppin to the roster. Looking to add some more wing depth, or even simply the best player on the roster, Bennedict Mathurin could be an option.

Mathurin showed plenty of potential during his freshman season at Arizona and could develop into a really good player down the line. He’d fit with what the Pistons are trying to build and would give the team another shot at hitting a home run.

If the Pistons aren’t in love with any specific prospect in the top 5, this type of trade-down move should absolutely be on the table for the team.
