However, the 33-year-old forward/center wasn’t in a celebratory […]

Despite his own individual success early in his rookie season, AJ Dybantsa is only focused on helping the Washington Wizards win more games.

Despite Jalen Duren being sidelined for most of the season so far, the Detroit Pistons continue to hover around the tippy top of the Eastern Conference. When you also consider the time Isaiah Joe has missed, the integration of John Collins and Ausar Thompson's revamped offensive role, this is a genuinely big deal.

The Detroit Pistons remained unbeaten with a 106-93 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday night at Xfinity Mobile Arena, handing Philadelphia its first loss of the 2026-27 NBA season. Cade Cunningham scored 26 points, while John Collins recorded a double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds as Detroit improved to 3-0 despite playing without […] The post Pistons hand 76ers first loss of the season appeared first on TalkBasket.net.

Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 36 points on Friday, giving him 71 through the first two games, and stayed hopeful the Heat would rebound from their winless start.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren did not play in the second half of his team's victory at the Miami Heat on Friday. Duren was deemed questionable to return due to a right thigh injury, and did not play after halftime. Paul Reed started in place of Duren and finished the game for Detroit. The Pistons next play on Sunday at the Philadelphia 76ers. It's unknown at this point what Duren's status will be for that game.

Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum had a rough open to the regular season, scoring just 13 points on 6-of-23 shooting during his team's 121-113 loss against the Detroit Pistons.
