Andre Drummond came up huge tonight. He had 24 points and 20 rebounds on a high-efficiency shooting 11 for13 from the field. Blake Griffin also had a dominating performance with 24 points, 10 rebounds, and 6 assists.
The Dallas Mavericks were a hard out. However, with Luka Doncic out nursing an ankle injury, the Pistons had a premiere opportunity to take advantage of a team in the process of trading three starters to the New York Knicks– Dennis Smith Jr, Wesley Matthews and DeAndre Jordan.
In their absence, players like Harrison Barnes, who scored 27 points and tallied seven rebounds, stepped up to make things uncomfortable all night for the Detroit Pistons.
