Alex Caruso, Lonzo Ball and Patrick Williams traveled with the team to Philadelphia, but will head home to Chicago for the Detroit game.
Billy Donovan said medical felt this was a good time for them to make recovery progress and “the best place to do that is in Chicago.” – 5:47 PM

Dwane Casey on Killian Hayes: “His next step is his 3-point shooting. Being able to step into it with confidence. He has the light. If you’re open, shoot it. You’re not going to get a better shot.” – 5:23 PM

Rod Beard @detnewsRodBeard
#Pistons Dwane Casey says that going through some of the down times and experiencing different situations has contributed to their recent win surge. – 5:23 PM

Rod Beard @detnewsRodBeard
#Pistons Dwane Casey says the recent good play has been fueled some by better defense leading to offense, plus more connectivity, with Jerami Grant and Kelly Olynyk back and moving the ball better. – 5:22 PM

📅 On this day in 1962, the Hawks’ Bob Pettit had 48 points and 21 rebounds in a loss to the Nationals.
Wilt Chamberlain and Elgin Baylor are the only players in NBA history to record more 40p/20r games than Pettit.

“It’s not the greatest, in terms of me just having no pain, but in terms of me being able to come back and play and play at a high level and obviously knock some of the rust off, I feel like it’s going to help a lot.”
