After being swept in round one of the NBA Playoffs versus the top-seeded Milwaukee Bucks, the Detroit Pistons knew that they had to make moves this off-season.
Going into the NBA Draft, the Pistons had only one thought in mind; pick the best available wing player on the board. With most mock drafts having the Pistons drafting Romeo Langford, Kevin Porter Jr., Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Nassir Little, and even Tyler Herro, an unexpected top rated wing prospect was seen falling.
That prospect was Sekou Doumbouya. The Pistons scouted Doumbouya in Dallas when he worked out for many teams.
