Bagley was the second overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft after playing a stellar season at Duke. 

He has not lived up to his high expectations in the NBA so far, but he is only just 22-years-old. 

For a Pistons team that is in a complete rebuilding mode, he is a great player to take a chance on. 

Bagley has career averages of 13.5 points and 7.4 rebounds per game. 

The Pistons are the 15th seed in the Eastern Conference with a 12-43 record.
