The Detroit Pistons selected Isaiah Livers with the 42nd pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. Livers is a 6’8 forward out of the University of Michigan.

Livers, 23, appeared in 23 games this past season for the Wolverines, averaging 13.1 points and 6.0 rebounds per game while shooting 43.1% from the 3-point line. He missed a large chunk of last season with a right foot injury, a stress fracture that he had surgery on in April.

Isaiah Livers is shooting 45.7% from three on 10 attempts per 100. He's not a perfect defender due to some lacking foot speed, but standing 6'7" with functional strength, he is more than serviceable. He's a shot making wing who the Sixers should seriously consider in this draft. pic.twitter.com/m5SpPieZrz

Livers projects to spend most of his minutes at the power forward spot in the NBA, stretching the floor at a high level.

Livers is the second prospect taken in the draft by Detroit. They selected Cade Cunningham with the first pick in the draft.
