SBN Mock Draft: Ausar Thompson represents one more big swing in Detroit Pistons rebuild

Barring a miracle, this is likely (hopefully) the last time the Detroit Pistons are entering the NBA Draft with a top-5 selection. The last two drafts in particular have borne some fruit in the forms of Cade Cunningham, Jaden Ivey and Jalen Duren. Now the Pistons have a crucial choice to make.

Do they add a player with a higher floor and lower ceiling who would be likely to represent a solid complementary piece? Players who seem to fit that mold include Jarace Walker, Cam Whitmore, Anthony Black or Cason Wallace.

Alternatively, the Pistons could take one more big swing at a high-end talent who also has a decent chance of busting.
