Detroit — Maybe there’s something to the home cookin’ that’s helping the Pistons during their recent spurt.
Although they had two blowout losses in their last two games, the Pistons continued on their home streak, winning their eighth straight at Little Caesars Arena, 111-97 over the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night.
The win stopped their streak of sub-80-point games at two and nudged the Pistons (35-33) back into sixth place in the East playoff race, just percentage points ahead of the Brooklyn Nets, who were idle.
Langston Galloway had 23 points off the bench, Reggie Jackson added 20 points, five rebounds and five assists and Andre Drummond had 19 points and 23 rebounds.
