ORLANDO | Darrun Hilliard carries himself with a noticeable level of confidence.
Despite being taken in the second round of last month’s NBA Draft, the former Villanova guard doesn’t seem too concerned with the ups and downs that come with playing in the Orlando Pro Summer League. He knows he has to impress Detroit’s basketball czar Stan Van Gundy, but he’s also just trying to get acclimated.
After scoring 12 points in the Pistons 78-73 loss to the Miami Heat on Monday, Hilliard carries himself not like a second-round pick, but like a player he deserves a spot on the team come November.
