NBA Drafts Killian Hayes

NBA Drafts Killian Hayes

Ian Mulhearne

The steal of the NBA draft was a prospect by the name of Killian Hayes, the 6 foot 5 point guard from France who just got drafted by the Detroit Pistons . Hayes is the biggest steal of the draft because he has a lot of upside with his athleticism, scoring , and his playmaking which should help him out a lot. There are a few down sides to his game, but all those downsides are fixable.  With the right type of NBA trainers and professionals, his game can improve tremendously. He needs to work on his jump shot, his three point shot, and his muscle if he can develop all those things he will be the Pistons point guard for the future. I believe that Hayes could help improve the Pistons record by at least 8 games. 

It is going to be quite a challenge for Hayes to improve a rebuilding Pistons team. It is probably going to take Hayes and the Pistons organization at least 5 to 6 years to be a contender. If Hayes gets the help  around him that he needs he will do great things, and can potentially be one of the biggest draft steals of all time and teams would someday look back and say why didn’t I draft this guy when we had the chance. In my opinion Hayes will be the biggest steal of the 2020 draft class.  In addition, he is young, played professional at age 16, and every time he steps on the court he keeps improving and he contributes all over the court.  If he does become a steal, NBA teams will probably start to look at more international players so they will finally get a chance to prove what they can actually do. In conclusion, I think Hayes will inspire other international players to do better and will help inspire the NBA to bring in more international players like himself
