Game Theory Podcast's Sam Vecenie joins to help game out next steps for rebuilding Detroit Pistons

As the Detroit Pistons front office continues their search for a head of basketball operations, the guys turn their focus to the upcoming NBA draft. Bryce and Omari share their top 10 big boards, and break down how each may work with the Pistons next season. Would Dalton Knecht be an ideal fit next to Cade Cunningham? Is Reed Sheppard efficient enough to overlook his small stature? Should Donovan Clingan be a top 5 pick? Is Alex Sarr a lock at number 1? The guys answer all of these and more as we prepare for an incredibly important draft this offseason.
