The Detroit Pistons staged a furious comeback from 30 points down in the third quarter to get within four Saturday against the Washington Wizards, but eventually ran out of gas down the stretch. Tonight, they look to avoid the huge early deficit altogether and exact a bit of revenge against the Wizards.
For the second time in a row, Detroit will be facing Washington on the second night of a back-to-back. The big difference this time is that the Wizards seem likely to be missing Bradley Beal, who left the first game against Detroit with a hip injury and hasn’t seen the floor since.
