Detroit Pistons trade for athletic Tennessee PG Jordan Bone

The Detroit Pistons made a last-minute move toward the end of the 2019 NBA draft Thursday. The Pistons traded with the Philadelphia 76ers for Tennessee point guard Jordan Bone , dealing one of the future second-round picks they landed from the Cleveland Cavaliers earlier in evening , a source tells the Free Press. The Pistons also sent out cash to complete the transaction. The Pistons address a need with one of the most athletic players in the draft. Reggie Jackson is the team's lone point guard on the roster, with Ish Smith and Jose Calderon set to become unrestricted free agents June 30. At 6 feet 3 and 180 pounds, Bone could at least give the Pistons a viable third point guard option his rookie season. After an inconsistent first two seasons with the Vols, it clicked for Bone during his junior season, where he averaged 13 points and nearly 5.8 assists per game with two turnovers. He shot 35.5% from 3-point range on 3.8 attempts per game. Pistons' Sekou Doumbouya 'reminds me a lot of Pascal Siakam'
