Hey everyone! This is Laz Jackson of Detroit Bad Boys, and on this week's podcast, we're talking about your 15-46 Detroit Pistons. The All-Star Break is over, the calendar is about to turn to March, and Ben is out, so I talk to Steve Pelletier of the RezBall Substack and podcast about the his Big Board and the top of the 2023 NBA Draft. Steve always brings a TON of information and thoughts that are just a little bit different than the consensus, so it was great to talk to him about Scoot Henderson, The Thompson Twins, and ... Taylor Hendricks?
