Detroit — With 12 games remaining, the Pistons are nearing the end of another season of disappointment in the win-loss column.
The Pistons currently have the worst record in the league, at 16-54, and if they finish the season without another victory, it'll tie a franchise record for their worst record, matching the 16-64 mark set by the 1979-80 Pistons.
Detroit recently snapped an 11-game skid with a 20-point win over the Pacers, but the winning didn't last longer than 24 hours with Tuesday's 20-point defeat at Washington.
The team's depth is depleted, with most of their rotation players sidelined due to injury or illness, and aside from their trade-deadline and buyout-market additions, James Wiseman and RJ Hampton, 10-day signee Eugene Omoruyi has become one of the bright spots as the season wanes.
