Pistons vs Pacers Final Score: Pistons snap 11-game losing skid in ... (Detroit Bad Boys)

Seven Pistons finish in double figures in blowout win over Indiana.

The Pacers were just 10-34 from three point range and shot just under 42 percent overall from the field. Killian Hayes posted another solid performance as the Pistons’ lead playmaker, scoring 10 points and dishing 10 assists in the victory. It’s tough to assess whether Detroit will include him in their future plans with so many youngsters on the roster, but he’s certainly killing his NBA audition so far in a short stint. Rodney Mcgruger (18 points) and Cory Joseph (22 points) each posted season highs in their increased roles and combined to shoot 9-of-13 from three. This was the teams’ second matchup in three days and matched Detroit’s largest margin of victory of the season (20). Omoruyi signed his second 10-day contract earlier today and has taken advantage of his sudden role on the squad, scoring in double figures in three of his last four games.

Four observations: Short-handed Pacers lose rematch with ... (The Indianapolis Star)

In the second of a two-game series between undermanned teams, the Pacers had a rough shooting night and lost to the last-place Pistons.

They outscored the Pacers 62-44 in the paint and outrebounded them 52-42. Joseph, who played with the Pacers in 2017-18 and 2018-19, scored 22 points on 8-of-14 shooting, including 5-of-8 from 3-point range.

"The difference in the game, without looking at the whole thing first, was obvious," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said.

On Monday, he was -10 with in just 4 minutes of action. In each game in this three-day series, the Pistons and Pacers were severely undermanned due to injuries.

Insider: Why the Pacers benefitted from resting starters in series in ... (The Indianapolis Star)

The Pacers rested Tyrese Haliburton, Myles Turner and T.J. McConnell for two games against Detroit and it made for valuable experiences for young players.

"This is going to be a challenge for him to try to adopt that kind of feel for both elements, the scoring and the playmaking, without overcommitting to one or the other. The goal for now is for the Pacers to learn what it takes to stop that. "The difference in the game ... He sprained his ankle Thursday in a win over the Rockets, had to be carried off the floor and stayed in Indianapolis for rehab. The Pistons outshot them and outworked them in every possible way, outscoring them 62-44 in the paint and winning the rebound battle 52-42. Not that that's wrong, they're three of the best players in the world. Approaching it that way, the Pacers got more than 68 minutes at point guard over two games for Andrew Nembhard, a rookie who has played the point all of his career but has moved off the ball so he can start with Haliburton. That came after he scored 11 points against the Pistons on Saturday in another game in which the nominal power forward got some work at the 2 and the 3, showing that he is more than just a standstill shooter and attacking off the bounce. The Pacers still don't appear to be tanking to improve their draft position, and at 31-38 they couldn't do it very effectively at this point if they wanted to. Even if they simply stopped winning now and lost their final 13 games, it's hard to imagine more than one team -- the Orlando Magic -- would pass them and improve their draft lottery odds. Like I said, they're all great players (in Milwaukee) and I learned a lot from that, but now actually being able to be in those situations and play through it, play through mistakes and learn. In 2021-22, he scored 28 points, again when all the Bucks' stars had the night off, and 24 points on 23 shots the last night of the regular season.
