NBA: Pistons sign first-round picks Stuckey, Afflalo

Associated Press

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — The Detroit Pistons signed first-round draft picks Rodney Stuckey and Arron Afflalo to contracts today.

Stuckey, the 15th selection in last month's NBA draft, played two seasons at Eastern Washington. His 24.2 points per game as a freshman and 24.6 the following season led the Big Sky Conference. He's fourth on the school's career scoring list.

Afflalo was drafted 27th and averaged 16.9 points as a junior last season at UCLA. He led the Bruins to the NCAA Final Four and was a consensus first-team All-American.
