The Detroit Pistons will play the Philadelphia 76ers for the second half of a ‘home and home’ series. Detroit will need to put forth a season-best effort if they are to challenge the hometown 76ers tonight.
After barely registering a punch in Sunday’s 123-111 loss to Philly, the short-handed Pistons will be without their leading scorer and best player in Bojan Bogdanovic. Detroit News reporter Mike Curtis reported the 33-year-old sharpshooter will be absent with left calf soreness. Curtis also confirmed rookie big-man Jalen Duren will miss his second straight game while he recovers from ankle soreness.
