With a flawed but resilient roster, and only a few, easily identifiable ways to add players of consequence this offseason, the Detroit Pistons really, REALLY need whomever they draft this year to work out. And after the seemingly solid additions of Bruce Brown and Khyri Thomas in last year’s draft, there’s reason to be optimistic that this iteration of the Pistons’ front office will be able to locate an immediate and long-term contributor with the 15th pick in the 2019 NBA Draft.
So why am I stuck on KZ Okpala, the 6-foot-9, 209-pound forward out of Stanford?
