When Cleveland unexpectedly took Thompson, Toronto happily snapped up Jonas Valanciunas. Had the Cavs taken the 7-foot Lithuanian, as widely anticipated, Detroit and Toronto might well have been trade partners. Joe Dumars, after happily taking Brandon Knight, said that night he had all but completed a trade with the Raptors that would have resulted in a swap of picks, moving the Pistons up to No. 5. Charlotte, at No. 7, took Bismack Biyombo.
