The Detroit Pistons are learning how to fight, but they aren’t necessarily the last team standing. The Pistons fell to the Houston Rockets 101-99 in an extremely physical game that came down to the final possession.

The Houston Rockets and the Detroit Pistons know each other well. They spent years together, sharing the bottom of the NBA standings.

The Detroit Pistons have not won three games in a row since April 3, 2022, when they scratched together a few meaningless wins at the end of the year, en route to a woeful 17-65 season.

The Detroit Pistons welcomed Bronny James and the Los Angeles Lakers to Little Caesars Arena for some Monday Night Football Basketball.

Led by a triple-double from Cade Cunningham, the Detroit Pistons secured their second straight win on the second night of a back-to-back with a 115-103 win over the Los Angeles Lakers at Little Caesars Arena. The Pistons led by as many as 20, and held a lead consistently through most of Monday’s game against the
I fear what Anthony Davis is going to be able to accomplish today against the Detroit Pistons. I fear what Los Angeles Lakers coach JJ Redick will be able to scheme up to create open looks and clear driving lanes for his team. I always fear LeBron James. I’m not sure how excited I am
The Detroit Pistons put on a defensive masterclass in the second half in their 106-92 victory against the Brooklyn Nets, holding their opponent to just 35 points. Detroit looks to build on that defensive momentum as they face their toughest individual task to date: stopping Anthony Davis and the Los Angeles Lakers. Game Vitals When:
For more than a decade, the Detroit Pistons seem to be the home of depressing stats. But you know what they say: depressing records were made to be broken. One particular record fell on Sunday evening — the Pistons and the Detroit Lions won on the same day for the first time since 2021. Yes,
