The Detroit Pistons (15 - 25) defeated the Indiana Pacers (15 - 26) 98 - 96 on Friday. Detroit has won seven straight road games, and after Wednesday's 105 - 94 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans at home, Brandon Jennings decided to put the team on his shoulders Friday, scoring a season - high 37 points in 34 minutes. Andre Drummond put up 16 points and 16 rebounds and also tipped in the game - winning shot with 0 seconds left. After getting off to several slow starts recently, coach Stan Van Gundy brought up the possibility of making a change to his starting lineup coming into Friday's game, but he opted to stick with the same starting lineup, and they got the job done. Indiana has dropped three straight games, losing to the Sixers, Timbwerolves and Pistons. George Hill will not play this weekend as he continues to work his way back from a groin injury, putting his return on tap for Monday's game against the Rockets as his earliest possible return date. The Pacers had six players score in dougle digits Friday, with Roy Hibbert leading the way with a team - high 14 points. Indiana could n't defend the three - point line or keep the Pistons off the charity stripe. Detroit will return home to host the 76ers on Saturday, and the Pacers will begin a five - game road trip Saturday against the Charlotte Hornets.
