The Pistons are kicking off February with a slightly earlier tip-off time as Detroit will play host to the Brooklyn Nets with the game starting at 6 pm.
After going 2-1 on their West Coast swing, the Pistons are back in Motown for another Eastern Conference battle, this time against the struggling Brooklyn Nets. At 13-34, the Nets are going to be sellers at the deadline this year, and the Pistons reportedly have their eye on Michael Porter Jr. However, the Pistons will not have an opportunity to evaluate MPJ up close tonight since he's already been ruled out due to personal reasons.
Most likely, the Nets do not want to risk injuring their most valuable trade asset just days before the deadline. But either way, the Pistons are Nets are set to duke it out later tonight, so how do you see it shaking out?
Will the Pistons roll over the shorthanded Nets? Or will Brooklyn catch the Pistons slipping in the friendly confines of LCA?
