    Why would Wiggins play? That makes no sense. Dame didn't play the year after he won ROY.

    Dame was on the official roster and did practice with the team. Maybe it is a similar situation?

    I kind of hope we get Khem Birch on our SL team - he's last year's Christian Wood, but he had a good year in the D-League and stresses defense. But we might have already got our quota of super-athletic, skill-challenged forwards.

    Detroit start securing players for Orlando Summer League
    With the draft over, many young, undrafted players flood the free agency market looking to earn a roster spot, and, as a result the Pistons have started filling out their Summer League roster. So far the Pistons have received commitments from UTEP forward Julian Washburn and Canisius point guard Billy Baron. Washburn was one of several prospects to work out for Motown prior to the draft, the 6'8" forward shot a career high 38.1% from three and averaged 10.3 points 4.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists over the course of his final year. Baron went undrafted in last year's draft, and spent the year in Europe playing for Lietuvos Rytas Vilnius. The 6'2" point guard played in 17 games, averaging 11.5 minutes per, in which he put up 6.1 points 1.0 rebounds and 0.8 assists, shooting .534/.475/.700.

    Quincy Miller, Spencer Dinwiddie, Stanley Johnson and Darrun Hilliard are also expected to take part. Miller, 22, who the team acquired shortly after the February trade deadline, has been spending the offseason in the gym, putting on weight to play power forward, and is expected to have a strong SL showing. Dinwiddie rebounded well from an ACL tear suffered in college, and showed off the tantalizing skillset that had previously made him a mid-first round prospect. He should start alongside Piston draftee Darrun Hilliard in the backcourt, who will have the opportunity to showcase the talent and grittiness that led Jeff Bower and Stan Van Gundy picking him 38th overall. Johnson will start at SF, and give fans a preview of what the future will be like at the 3 for Motown, and hopefully shut down any lingering doubts regarding his fit in Detroit.

    The Orlando Summer League starts on July 4. Start getting excited!

    UPDATE: Steven Gray has also agreed to join the Pistons for Orlando Pro Summer League, per Dave Mayo.

    As long as I get to see PC in summer league then I am good. I am calling him that until he gets another nickname because I am too lazy to type out his full last name everytime.
