The Detroit Pistons drafted shooting guard Luke Kennard with the 12th pick in this summers NBA draft, and that spelled the end for two year pro Darrun Hilliard in Detroit. Hilliard, a former second round pick by the Pistons, was dealt to Houston on Wednesday for cash considerations. Later in the day, Hilliard was moved to the Clippers as part of a huge trade that brought star Chris Paul to the Rockets.
