The Detroit Pistons try to get back within a game of .500 when they travel to take on the Charlotte Hornets on Thursday.
The Charlotte Hornets may have lost four of their last five but they go for their fourth win at home in a row when they host the Detroit Pistons. The Hornets are trying to avoid losing three games in a row though. It is helpful that Charlotte is already leading this season series 1-0 beating the Pistons at home by one point two weeks ago. Charlotte is coming off a one-point loss to the Brooklyn Nets when it lost 116-115 on Tuesday. Brandon Miller had a shot to win the game but he missed a three-pointer with just 1.1 seconds left in the game. Cam Johnson was just too much for Brooklyn scoring a game-high 34 points. Miller led the Hornets with 29 points. Detroit is the slight -1.5-point favorite against the Hornets on the road tonight.
