CBS NBA @CBSSportsNBABREAKING: Detroit Pistons select Jaden Ivey with No. 5 overall pickcbssports.com/nba/news/2022-… – 8:35 PM

Andy Larsen @andyblarsenI think Jaden Ivey’s going to be really good. I would have taken him higher than this, personally. – 8:35 PM

Henry Abbott @TrueHoopDETROIT PISTONS PICK JADEN IVEY OF PURDUE #5SNAP GRADE: A+++@David Thorpe: The perfect fit next to Cunningham! Incredibly explosive athlete who has a high hoops IQ and great motor. When the Pistons win a playoff series in 2 years, remember this night.https://t.co/LIiDCynK7i pic.twitter.com/ErZJUf4uZe – 8:34 PM

Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNUReally cool that Jaden Ivey goes to Pistons, after his late grandfather was a (good!) DB for the Detroit Lions pic.twitter.com/XJnxErOWnU – 8:34 PM

Justin Kubatko @jkubatkoJaden Ivey is the first Purdue player selected in the top five of the #NBADraft since Glenn Robinson was picked first overall in 1994. pic.twitter.com/8ZMWu10plJ – 8:34 PM

David Aldridge @davidaldridgedcCade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey together? What did Klay say last week?youtube.com/watch?v=zPrISA… – 8:34 PM

Scott Agness @ScottAgnessPurdue’s Jaden Ivey selected fifth overall by the Pistons.Reminds me of 2010 when it was Gordon Hayward taken one spot ahead of the Pacers — to the Jazz at 9. – 8:33 PM

Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBSCade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey should be absolutely perfect together, and more importantly, they are going to be one of the most watchable backcourts in the NBA for years to come. I might watch more Pistons by New Year’s than I have in the past decade. – 8:33 PM

Chuck Swirsky @ctsbullsHuge for the Pistons with Jaden Ivey – 8:32 PM

Shams Charania @ShamsCharaniaSources: Detroit will select Jaden Ivey at No. 5. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1… – 8:31 PM

Tommy Beer @TommyBeerInvest in Jaden Ivey stock pic.twitter.com/YbH8BF5tOi – 8:31 PM

Ben Rohrbach @brohrbachThe Kings just ensured Jaden Ivey will be an All-NBA guy – 8:31 PM

Fred Katz @FredKatzInitial thought about the Pistons taking Jaden Ivey fifth:I wonder if this takes them out of the Jalen Brunson market, considering they can use all that cap room elsewhere and they now have Ivey & Cunningham paired up. – 8:30 PM

Chris Mannix @SIChrisMannixKings have to hit on Keegan Murray. Have to. That No. 4 slot was tricky. Lot of talent (Jaden Ivey, Dyson Daniels, etc.) in that range. Kings need Murray to be the best of the bunch — and fit in with the Fox/Sabonis core. – 8:30 PM

Chris Grenham @chrisgrenhamSign me up for Jaden Ivey and Cade Cunningham. – 8:29 PM

Matt George @MattGeorgeSACKeegan Murray gives the Sacramento Kings a better chance of making the playoffs right away then Jaden Ivey does.Jaden Ivey has the higher ceiling, but not by much. And based on college production, Keegan Murray is BPA.Needless to say, I like the pick. – 8:29 PM

Kurt Helin @basketballtalkOn Brother from Another today, @Vincent Goodwill said Jaden Ivey would be the perfect fit in Detroit next to Cade Cunningham. Looks like we will get to see it. – 8:29 PM

Vincent Goodwill @VinceGoodwillThe Pistons looking to take Jaden Ivey at #5, sources tell Yahoo Sports – 8:29 PM

Chase Hughes @ChaseHughesNBCSCade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey are going to be fuuuuuuuun. – 8:28 PM

TJ McBride @TJMcBrideNBAGood on the Kings for grabbing Keegan Murray and picking their guy even with Jaden Ivey on the board. He will fit very well with Sabonis and Fox.Now Detroit gets their guy in Jaden Ivey. – 8:28 PM

Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofaJaden Ivey is the likely selection for the Pistons, per sources – 8:28 PM

Rod Beard @detnewsRodBeardI’m sure somebody has the Jaden Ivey mock-up prepared … I know this. – 8:28 PM

Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespnPurdue’s Jaden Ivey is landing at No. 5 for the Detroit Pistons, source tells ESPN. – 8:28 PM

Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBSTo be clear I like Keegan Murray and think he’ll do well in Sacramento.But Jaden Ivey is better and this is bad process from the Kings. At the very least trade down with Detroit and get something to do this. – 8:27 PM

James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIIISources: The Pistons are eying Jaden Ivey with the fifth pick. – 8:27 PM

Scott Agness @ScottAgnessPacers were very high on Keegan Murray. Very possible Jaden Ivey falls to the Pacers at 6. Have heard the Pistons aren’t sold on him. – 8:26 PM

Jake Fischer @JakeLFischerThe Pistons are exploring opportunities to trade down from No. 5, sources said. A lot of interest in Jaden Ivey still remaining on the board. – 8:26 PM

Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor#Cavs fans: Keep an eye on what the Detroit Pistons do at No. 5 tonight. The Pistons are one of the teams interested in Collin Sexton, as I’ve been reporting for about a month. If Detroit gets Jaden Ivey or Ben Mathurin or Shaedon Sharpe then Sexton isn’t as much of a priority. – 8:25 PM

Michael Pina @MichaelVPinajaden ivey and cade cunningham will be a blast – 8:25 PM

Peter Edmiston @peteredmistonDetroit’s gotta be thrilled to end up with Jaden Ivey. Put him with Cade…whew… that’s a fun backcourt. – 8:25 PM

Ryan McDonough @McDNBAJaden Ivey will be one of the 4 best players to come out of this Draft… – 8:25 PM

Jason Anderson @JandersonSacBeeSounds like Jabari Smith Jr. will go to the Houston Rockets at No. 3, leaving the Kings with their choice of Jaden Ivey, Keegan Murray, etc. – 8:19 PM

Scott Agness @ScottAgnessBlake Wesley’s shoes.Cool that the NBA put two Indiana guys next to each other in row 1 of the green room — Wesley and Jaden Ivey. pic.twitter.com/50sOH7rRy9 – 8:03 PM

Alex Schiffer @Alex__SchifferPaolo Banchero, Jaden Ivey, TyTy Washington and Jeremy Sochan are all expected to go in the top-20 of the NBA Draft tonight. All four players learned the game from their mothers, who were ballers themselves. Story from Tuesday with @KyleTucker_ATH: theathletic.com/3370018/?sourc… – 7:49 PM

Adam Zagoria @AdamZagoriaIs it any surprise Jaden Ivey didn’t work out for the Kings or send them his Medicals? pic.twitter.com/snKs4zWZrA – 3:12 PM

James Boyd @RomeovilleKidJust thinking out loud, but how much leverage does an incoming player really have? Jaden Ivey might not be that high on the #Kings, but if I’m the Kings and I want him, I’d still draft him anyway!!Lol be looking at each other like this after he puts that Kings hat 👀😂 pic.twitter.com/p8krciNAlX – 1:38 PM

Gery Woelfel @GeryWoelfelThe NBA draft’s top 3 picks –Jabari Smith, Chet Holmgren and Paolo Banchero — have been virtually set for several weeks. The fun & games begin at 4. Kings are VERY receptive to moving the pick, and Knicks want it in worst way to get Jaden Ivey. Toppin and a pair of No. 1s? – 12:54 PM
