Detroit Pistons rookie Ron Holland actually believed that his former G League Ignite teammate Matas Buzelis would be taken 5th overall during the 2024 NBA Draft.
(via Under The Hood with The Detroit Pistons):
“Funny story. So as the pick’s going by, we really noticing just how all the cameras was moving to the players before or right after the pick is called and I was looking at Matas. I told Matas, I’m like, ‘Matas, Detroit right here.’ It was just a funny thing, and he looked back and said, ‘They going for you.’”
