Rip Hamilton to represent Pistons at NBA Draft Lottery

After the Pistons got the No. 1 overall pick in last year's NBA Draft Lottery, they're looking for a repeat in their luck.

The Pistons' representative in the lottery last season was Ben Wallace, who was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame last fall. Wallace exulted in the Pistons' winning the lottery and later selecting Cade Cunningham first overall.

This time, the Pistons are looking to one of Wallace's teammates from the "Goin' to Work" era to try to get another top pick. Richard "Rip" Hamilton will represent the Pistons for the draft lottery, which will take place in Chicago on Tuesday night.
