Detroit Pistons
Jonas Jerebko, Sweden
Similarly to the Celtics, the Detroit Pistons haven’t had much luck with international players throughout their history.
They had one shot at a potentially great European wearing their colors, but sadly, the Darko Milicic experiment wound up being an unmitigated disaster from start to finish.
Though he arrived to far less fanfare than Milicic, Jonas Jerebko ended up being a decent role player for the Pistons. During his five-plus year stint with Detroit, the Swede forward averaged 7.6 points and 4.5 rebounds per contest.
