Sacramento Kings: Game 38 Preview vs Detroit Pistons
By Tyler Watts
Detroit Pistons’ Scouting Report
It has been a disappointing season so far for the Detroit Pistons. After securing a playoff berth last season, the Pistons were hoping to build on that with a young talented core, but things have gone awry so far. The team currently sits at 18 wins and 21 losses. That puts them 10th in the Eastern Conference standings and on the outside looking in at the playoffs.
On a brighter note, the Pistons enter tonight’s game on a two-game winning streak. Both wins coming against playoff teams last season. Last time out, the Pistons defeated the Portland Trail Blazers by a score of 125-124 in double overtime. Below is a highlight video from that game to you a glimpse at the Pistons’ current form.
The Pistons are lead in scoring this season by Tobias Harris. Harris has 32 starts under his belt this season, but recently switched to a bench role and has flourished. In those 7 games, he is averaging 21.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 2.1 three-pointers made per game in 32.3 minutes per game. The switch to the bench has not diminished his playing time just allowed him to be the clear go-to option with the second unit. Expect a big Tobias Harris game tonight against the Kings.
