Killian Hayes was selected with the No. 7 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft by the Detroit Pistons. After just a few days of training camp, he’s already shown flashes of greatness and could be a starter when the season comes around.
According to Omari Sankofa of the Detroit Free Press, Dwane Casey says that as of now, Killian Hayes is the the starting point guard for the Pistons. Casey would also go on to compare Hayes to Jason Kidd, which goes to show just how much potential that Hayes has as an NBA player.
“I’m not saying he’s Jason Kidd, but he’s got that point guard size. Big, strong sturdy body … he’s an old-school type point guard.”
The Pistons will open up the 2020-21 season against the Timberwolves on December 23. Killian Hayes will make his NBA debut against the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, Anthony Edwards.
