Floor/ceiling player comparisons for the Pistons’ rookies

For the second straight year, the Detroit Pistons landed two players in the first round of the NBA Draft.

Ausar Thompson is an athletic forward with two-way potential and Marcus Sasser is a tough combo guard, who is more of a scorer than a playmaker.

We’ve only seen these two play a handful of Summer League games but there was plenty to like, as Thompson filled the highlight reel and played disruptive defense while Sasser busted out for 40 points after initially struggling to hit shots.
