CHICAGO – The Pistons know that they need to find a starting small forward this summer and that they very well might need to find a starter at power forward, too.
They're not banking on their lottery pick to fill one of those slots, necessarily, but if they draft a player who can at least give them rotation minutes at one – or, better yet, both – then that's one less piece of the puzzle they'll have to solve in free agency.
That appears within the realm of the possible, given what appears to be the strength of the draft in the slots where the Pistons are most likely to choose, eighth or ninth.
