Observations: Yeoman efforts by Ellington, Plumlee take sting out of latest Pistons' loss

The Pistons’ matchup with the Miami Heat was pushed back a few hours to Monday night after some issues with COVID testing during the morning.

Picking up where they left off in Saturday’s win over the Heat, when the Pistons got their first road win of the season, they got off to a hot start, with a 32-13 lead through the first eight-plus minutes. The Pistons shot 65% from the field in the first quarter but the lead didn’t last as the Heat rallied and erased the margin and took the lead in the third quarter.
