The 2014–15 Detroit Pistons season was the 74th season of the franchise, the 67th in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 58th in Detroit.
Draft picks
Round Pick Player Position Nationality College/Team 2 38 Spencer Dinwiddie PG Colorado
The Pistons entered the draft with one second-round selection. Their first-round selection was conveyed to the Charlotte Hornets after falling outside its top-8 protection in the NBA draft lottery, due to a 2012 Ben Gordon trade when the franchise was still known as the Bobcats, after having been deferred from 2013 when the team missed that year's playoffs to keep its lottery protection.
