Pistons draft Bobi Klintman after trading up in second round

After trading up in the second round of the draft on Thursday, the Pistons took forward Bobi Klintman from the Australia National Basketball League No. 37 overall.

Klintman is a 6'9 combo forward who averaged 9.7 points while shooting 35.7 percent from three last season. A native of Sweden, he spent a season at Wake Forest before making the jump to the NBL as part of the league's Next Stars program.

With length and a sure shooting stroke, Klintman projects as a "good role player at the NBA level as he shows a willingness to do the dirty work and whatever is necessary to help a team win," per NBADraft.net . He's described as an "unselfish" player, which happens to be how Trajan Langdon described his vision for Pistons basketball.

Klintman, 21, isn't highly athletic and can struggle to create his own offense, but he's a shot-maker and a willing defender with an NBA frame. At the very least, that will give him a chance.

His agent is Michael Tellem, the son of Pistons vice chairman and former NBA power agent Arn Tellem.
