A rapid riser, Luguentz Dort has quickly made himself one of the draft’s most desirable guards/wings. The Pistons have some intriguing young talent in Luke Kennard and Bruce Brown, but adding to that mix seems like the right move.

Dort has an NBA-ready frame, which should help his adjustment on defense. He’s an aggressive on-ball defender who plays bigger than his 6-foot-5 frame, leaping into passing lanes and forcing deflections at a high rate.

On the offensive end, Dort can hit jumpers, attack the rim and do damage as a secondary shot-creator. He someone who should get serious top-20 consideration, assuming his shooting numbers continue to impress.
