The Detroit Pistons have only a few more hours to figure out what they will do with their first-round pick.
The Pistons currently have the No. 21 overall selection in the 2026 NBA Draft, with the first round taking place on Tuesday, June 23.

Here is the latest on what NBA draft experts believe the Pistons will do with their first-rounder.
