The Detroit Pistons selected Lithuanian forward Deividas Sirvydis with the No. 37 overall pick in the 2019 NBA draft.
Sirvydis, 19, averaged 5.4 points and 1.9 rebounds last season for BC Rytas. A lanky 6'8" forward with a sweet shooting stroke, Sirvydis is a prime draft-and-stash candidate.
The Pistons need shooting across their roster, so Sirvydis could be a strong fit in Detroit. It's also possible they ask him to play in the G League next season if he wants to come over.
Scouting Profile
Offensive Strengths
Strong mix of size, driving and shooting ability. A project, but his body and game hint at an NBA forward.
Offensive Weaknesses
Limited off the dribble in terms of creativity. Hasn't played heavy minutes.
Defensive Outlook
Has tools/mobility to be a serviceable defender.
Projected role: Reserve wing
