Game 7-034: Detroit at Illinois-Chicago--The Mid-Majority
Piston rookie Monroe had pre-draft thoughts of Utah--Salt Lake Tribune
In the 2010 draft, Utah had a handful of players on its radar, including Georgetown power forward Greg Monroe and Butler’s Gordon Hayward.
If both had been available, I don’t know whom the Jazz would have picked.
But Detroit, selecting two spots earlier, helped make the decision for them.
The Pistons grabbed Monroe at No. 7.
The Jazz took Hayward at No. 9.
Today, midway through their rookie seasons, both players appear to have bright futures.
...
Like Hayward, Monroe played two years of college basketball before jumping to the NBA.
Both are still months from celebrating their 21st birthday.
...
Like the Jazz with Hayward, Monroe is happy about landing in Detroit.
Sloan gets creative--Salt Lake Tribune
Sloan’s most unique rotation came during the second quarter, with a lackluster Utah squad staring at a 49-33 deficit. Employing a blend of first-tier starters and rookie bench players, Sloan turned to Watson, Deron Williams, Gordon Hayward, Jeremy Evans and Al Jefferson at once. At the same time, primary rotation players Paul Millsap, Andrei Kirilenko and Raja Bell were stuck on the sideline.
Sloan then pushed the agenda further during the early third quarter, turning again to Hayward, and teaming the rookie with Williams, Kirilenko, Millsap and Jefferson.
“Probably in [Hayward’s] behalf, I shouldn’t have put him out there as a young player, maybe,” Sloan said. “But he’s going to get experience anyway.”
Hayward acknowledged that random insertions are never easy. But he survived the fire, and said he is always prepared to enter a contest at any time.
“You can’t control who he decides to put in the game. You just try to be ready on the bench and focus the whole time,” Hayward said. “And when he puts you in, just go out and compete.”
