Detroit Pistons Receive: F Doug McDermott, 2025 First-Round Pick (Lottery Protected – ATL via SAS)
San Antonio Spurs Receive: F/C Marvin Bagley III
Meanwhile, there’s a lot of buzz about the upcoming lottery. This year feels a little different than usual.
Obviously, that’s got much to do with Victor Wembanyama’s presence. This is the most anticipated NBA prospect since LeBron James.
On the other hand, he’s not the only tantalizing prospect in this crop. Scoot Henderson would go first overall in an average NBA draft. The hyper-athletic point guard may be the most anticipated point guard prospect since John Wall.
There’s a world where Amen Thompson is better than either of them. Meanwhile, his brother Ausar, Cam Whitmore, Nick Smith Jr., and others round out what looks like an incredible draft class.
