PREVIEW
Returning from a four-game road trip, the Pistons host the Wizards at Little Caesars Arena.
Detroit won their first matchup 124-104 on November 17 and now looks to end a five-game home skid vs. Washington.
The Pistons beat Portland 119-112, securing their 11th win in 14 games—who knew winning could be contagious?
The Wizards fell 119-104 to Toronto, thanks in part to Alex Sarr’s cringe-worthy 5-19 shooting while missing Khris Middleton.
Washington has now lost 10 straight when Sarr shoots below 30.0%—someone get that man a new shooting coach.
