The Detroit Pistons traded back into the end of the second round to take Jordan Bone, a point guard out of Tennessee, with the 57th overall pick.
To say that was a surprise to Bone is an understatement.
Bone was right in the middle of telling his gathered family and friends it was OK to leave. Like the end of a presidential campaign, there would be no balloon drop and his NBA dream looked to be deferred.
“I’m hurt right now, probably more hurt than he is,” Bone said as he sat on a platform, microphone in hand to those assembled.
