Detroit drafted the 24-year-old with the 57th pick of the June draft. The 6-foot-6 Mejia averaged 12.1 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 123 career games at DePaul, where he earned second-team All-Big East honors as a senior. Mejia finished his career as DePaul's ninth all-time leading scorer.</div> Source: Yahoo Sports
