Former Alabama big man Donta Hall lands 10-day contract with NBA team
Former Alabama big man Donta Hall went undrafted in the 2019 NBA Draft, but ended up playing in the Summer League for the Detroit Pistons.
He then landed a spot with the Pistons’ G-League team, the Grand Rapids Drive.
Now, though, he’ll get his chance in the NBA, as the Pistons announced via Twitter on Saturday that they were signing Hall to a 10-day contract:
OFFICIAL: The Pistons have signed forward/center Donta Hall to a 10-day contract.
Hall has averaged 15.4 points and 10.5 rebounds in 36 games this season with the @grdrive

Obviously, that’s a short-term look for the Pistons, who need him for depth, but it’s still a big deal for Hall.
Hall was averaging a double-double (15.4 points and 10.6 rebounds) in 36 games this season with the Drive. We’ll see how he fares in his brief audition with Detroit.
