The Pistons took Lanier in the second round with pick No. 37 ahead of the Malik Beasley news and their free agency additions of former Michigan Wolverines guards, Caris LeVert and Duncan Robinson III, as they wanted to add more shooting to their lineup.
The 6′4″ 24-year-old wing player averaged 18 points per game while knocking down 40% from beyond the arc.
As a senior with the Tennessee Volunteers, Lanier was known to make sweet string music as he set a school record with 123 three-pointers during his senior season.
Lanier was awarded the 2025 Jerry West Award, recognizing him as the top shooting guard in the nation.
He was also named NABC Third Team All-American, Wooden Award All-American, and First Team All-SEC.
Lanier was also named the SEC Newcomer of the Year.
