Detroit Nets No 2 Pick In Lieu Of LaRussa Bulls Take Haskins
Detroit used Los Angeles' first pick to grab No 4 in the round after LaRussa failed to report to Detroit. The Pistons signed Earl Monroe as the top free agent and aimed to beat the ABA to top stars. Clem Haskins, a 6 4 guard from Minnesota, was picked fifth by the Knicks. Frazier, 18 2 average, has one year left and graduates in June.
