🏀 Jabari Smith 🏀 Chet Holmgren 🏀 ? Which rookies ended up in the best situation on NBADraft night? mshap2 breaks it down ⤵️
Sacramento eschewed drafting yet another point guard at No. 4, leaving Ivey to slip to the Pistons at No. 5. And though Cade Cunningham is locked in as Detroit’s leading man of the future, he and Ivey could make for an electric offensive duo. Ivey provides the Pistons with some much-needed downhill burst, and the Purdue product should be free to let his athleticism shine without the burden of major playmaking responsibilities.
It’s frankly a credit to Cunningham that the Pistons can feel so comfortable sliding Ivey into their backcourt. Last year’s No. 1 pick is as mature as they come as a lead initiator, and he was consistently lauded as a rookie for his demeanor and focus. Landing Cunningham allowed Detroit to anchor its rebuild. Ivey could truly launch things.Daniels should be able to make an impact early on as a bit of a swiss-army-knife piece for the Pelicans.
