Jaden Ivey, who missed a winning triple at the buzzer that practically came off the inside, could not prevent the Detroit Pistons from falling this Friday against the Houston Rockets by 100-102 and thus suffered their 36th defeat in 39 games.
The Pistons sank this season with 28 consecutive losses – the worst streak in NBA history – but this Friday they were very close to achieving their fourth win of the campaign.
With 6.6 seconds left, Detroit had possession to force overtime or win the game. Ivey played the decisive shot, a front three-pointer that was very overpowered.
However, the shot bounced off the backboard and over the edge of the rim. But when it seemed like the ball was going in, it finally came out to break the hearts of Pistons fans.
Detroit is last in the East with the worst record in the league, a chilling 3-36. Furthermore, the team Monty Williams He has seven losses in a row.
Alec Burks y Kevin Knox, with 19 points per head, were the locals’ top scorers. Ivey had 18 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists for the Pistons without Cade Cunningham and Bojan Bogdanovic.
Alperen Sengun (29 points and 6 rebounds), Jalen Green (28 points) and Fred VanVleet (20 points and 12 assists) were the highlights for Houston, which had only won one of its last four games (now 19-18).
