I am glad to see him make the Pistons. I think he will have a career as a role player in the league. He only has to play for a 3--5 years and he can be set for life. Maybe the reason there hasn't been a post about this is there are too many people spitting out crow feathers.[/QUOTE]

Yes...it is a shame one or two are conspicuously silent...

People laughed when I said his stats and size were NBA-grade two years ago.

I agree. If Scott Padgett can play in the NBA, Willis can too. If Willis had Padgett's fire, Willis could be a 10 yr guy in the NBA

He did not make the Pistons. He signed an affiliates contract, which means he will go to training camp with Detroit, then go to their G-League team.

What kinda 1 year deal?

Probably a lot more than you will make.......

That's awesome. I didn't know if he'd find a spot or not but it's not shocking that someone would give a one year deal to a guy who's 6'9", can hit 40% of his 3's, grab a rebound or two and once in a blue moon do this....

Please tell Derek to live in Bloomfield Hills or in St Clair Shores. Detroit is not safe for a young man from Bullitt County

Willis will be living in Grand Rapids.

So.... I guess Coach Cal can't develop players ?

Was it because Cal developed Derek or that he couldn't develop WG (yet))

Anyway, happy for DW. No one should be the least surprised he's getting a shot, even if it's a bit of a long shot
