The NBA Draft is here, and for once, Detroit Pistons fans are not worried in the slightest. That is because the Pistons do not have a first-round pick, and are good enough and young enough, that the sense of FOMO is not kicking in.
The Pistons lost their pick (No. 17) in a draft-night trade that netted them Isaiah Stewart in 2020. The Minnesota Timberwolves currently own that pick. The NBA also decided to split the NBA Draft up into two nights, so the real action doesn’t start for Detroit until Thursday evening when they are slated to select at No.
