Thon
Maker

Thon Maker, whose long and winding journey to the NBA took him from his home in South Sudan, to prep schools in Australia and Canada, and now the pros, is showing potential as a lengthy big man with a reliable outside shot. Maker was formerly signed with Adidas, where he wore Crazy Explosive shoes on court. With the Pistons, he took a liking to the Kobe 9s, wearing a bright red pair to most games.
