"Freak athlete" was the phrase out of Jay Bilas' mouth. "Upside pick" said Bill Simmons.

What the ESPN analysts were alluding to Thursday night after the Detroit Pistons selected North Texas' Tony Mitchell in the second round also is ringing true with others today:

Detroit may have ended up with one of the steals of the NBA Draft at No. 37.

That's certainly an opinion of CBSSports.com's Gary Parrish, who listed Mitchell among the players "picked too low" in the draft.


"The Pistons managed to get a lottery talent outside of the top 35, which is always nice. Who knows if Mitchell will tap into his potential? But if he does, watch out. This is a prospect with lots of natural ability, one who was undeniably worth a flyer at this point in the draft," Parrish wrote.
