The Detroit Pistons (16 - 25) defeated the Philadelphia 76ers (8 - 32), 107 - 89. Since they waived Josh Smith, the Pistons are winners in 10 of their last 12 games and sit just outside the playoff bubble. The Sixers were without their leading scorer, Tony Wroten, for the third straight game due to a knee injury. Brandon Jennings followed up a 37 - point outing with 10 points and six assists in 22 minutes. The Pistons were led by D.J. Augustin in assists (10), Andre Drummond in rebounds (15) and blocks (3), Jodie Meeks in steals (6), and Kyle Singler in points (20). Kentavious Caldwell-Pope added 17 points, knocking in three of the Pistons' 15 three - pointers. The Sixers shot 7 - of - 28 from behind the three - point line, not unusual for the only team shooting under 30 percent from downtown this season. Michael Carter-Williams scored a team - high 15 points, but it was Larry Drew II who led the Sixers with nine assists off the bench in just his second game this season. Henry Sims provided a double - double (12 points, 10 rebounds) off the bench in 17 minutes. The Piston travel to Atlanta to take on the East leading Hawks on Monday. The Sixers will battle the Wizards in Washington come Monday in an afternoon matchup.
