I used to watch tons of Detroit Pistons games back when Deividas Sirvydis was still a part of the team. In every game, Killian Hayes stood out to me as a pretty bad player. He would either miss every single shot he took or make stupid attempts to squeeze the ball into a crowded paint. Simply put, I wasn’t a fan of Killian Hayes. So, I decided to analyze his game, and it completely changed my perspective on Killian Hayes.

Hey everyone, thank you for your kind comments. I've read all of them. Creating basketball videos for people who enjoy them is the best thing I could have asked for. Thank you so much.
great video as per usual
I agree I think Killian is a solid player with good passing and defense, heās not the perfect player but as a backup heāll be solid
Detroit is among the worst teams in the NBA, and with Killian Hayes on the floor last season, for 100 possessions, they were 4 points a game WORSE.
will be off of detroit soon. cant put the ball in the hoop
I don't understand how the hell this video is supposed to change anybody's perspective. If one of the worst shooters in the NBA develops a jump shot, he might have a chance? That's your insight? Lol.
He is similar to Ben Simmons where he dosent have a jump shot coming in hopefully he makes and stops the comparison
we need you in the nba community fr thereās not enough euro recognition in the community and i think you can provide that for it and the us basketball world in general <3
no one cares we have real issues this vid sucksssss
Rockets should sign him with brooks and van fleet. All first brick team.
Boy that rockets team going to be straight bricks
Ehh. This doesn't change anything for me personally. Solid defender with no offense to speak of in an offense driven league. Complete liability even as a back up.
wish Pistons will trade him cause they have so many players in his position, "Better Players". he won't grow there.
Killian Hayes sucks!!
Nah mofo sucks. Doesnt belong in the nba
I think heās a perfect back upāold schoolā pg. he just came in the league so young.
Really great production quality on these videos, and you go into way more depth than most NBA youtubers on players that don't get a lot of deeper analysis.
Iām surprised I thought Ousmane Dieng has the worst shooting
Hayes hate is crazy imma Detroit fan he avg 10.2pts 6.2ast n had good games and is our best defender and passer
He needs to learn how to cut, non shooting players can still contribute to spacing with smart cuts.
He is terrible taking a spot for someone who can actually hoop at this point ild even bring isiah Thomas way better
Killian is literally my favorite player in the league. Die hard piston fan all my life. Iāve always loved pass first point guards, but something about all the hate he gets made a super fan. I even bought one of his PSA 10 rookie cards for like 350 ish. Im ridin with killian til the wheels fall off š¤š¤š¤
From Detroit, he's a bum. Hope Sasser and Morris get all his minutes
Here is my perspective on Killian Hayes. He was chosen way too high. If he was chosen in the second round of the draft I could see that. He was a guy who had only played 10 games in a lower division league in Germany who seemed to have some promise but there wasn't enough background on him to justify a first round pick. He plays decent defense. He shoots free throws well and he has good court vision. He just doesn't score or shoot well from the field. He exemplifies a problem with the current drafting system and that is young players who haven't really been tested are chosen so high up in the draft based simply on upside. 1 or 2 is fine but nowadays, actual tested college players with more than one year experience are the exception for first round picks.
heāll be traded to san antonio
its clear to me that dwane casey is giving him lots of minuts to tank, kinda smart actually
