Pistons Interested In Moving Up For DeMarcus Cousins



Picking seventh, the Pistons hope to move up in the draft from the No. 7 spot to the 4-5 range (Minnesota, Sacramento) to get Kentucky big man DeMarcus Cousins. Despite maturity issues, Cousins has the kind of low-post skills that Joe Dumars is seeking.

The only question, at all, surrounding Cousins is his attitude.

Not uncommon.

He is a super talent. But, someone needs to let him know that as a rookie, he's not going to be able to get away with hooking his man in the post on every possession.

I can see him fitting in with Detroit

Pistons No Longer Trying To Move Up For DeMarcus Cousins

The Pistons are no longer making calls in an effort to move up in Thursday night's NBA Draft, according to Yahoo! Sports.

Detroit was believed to be interested in moving up for DeMarcus Cousins, but they are now content to choose between Greg Monroe and Ed Davis.

"Detroit's no longer making calls to move up in draft and planning to stay at No. 7, league sources say. Greg Monroe tops Ed Davis on board," Adrian Wojnarowski wrote on his Twitter page.
