Charlotte, N.C. — Win a few. Lose a few. Win one. Lose one.
That’s how a team gets to a .500 record — and that’s the path the Pistons are on, through 30 games.
After an impressive overtime win at Minnesota on Wednesday, they followed it up with a sluggish performance, falling to the Charlotte Hornets, 98-86, on Friday night at Spectrum Center.
It’s the second loss to the Hornets in the last 10 days and the third this season to the Hornets.
Blake Griffin had 23 points, seven rebounds and five assists, Andre Drummond 17 points and 16 rebounds and Reggie Jackson 12 points, six rebounds and four assists for the Pistons (15-15).
