Detroit — In their early struggles this season, the Pistons haven’t had very many easy wins, where they could breathe easy in the final minutes.

They had one Friday in beating the Atlanta Hawks by 25 points and they added another on Monday, rolling to a 103-88 victory over the Orlando Magic at Little Caesars Arena.

It’s the second straight home win for the Pistons, who still haven’t won two straight games this season. They’ll try to get that first streak on Wednesday at Charlotte.

Luke Kennard broke out of his shooting slump with 20 points and seven assists and Blake Griffin added 17 points and five rebounds for the Pistons (6-11).
