Pistons saw something in Hilliard others didn't

Former Villanova Wildcat Darrun Hilliard wasn’t among the 60-plus players invited to the NBA draft combine, and yet, Stan Van Gundy says the Pistons had Hilliard rated among the 25 best prospects in last week’s draft.

Now, it's up to Hilliard to prove his believers right; and his doubters wrong. Read the full feature on him at NBA.com.
