Pistons Look To Turn Around At Home
The Detroit Pistons play host to the Denver Nuggets at Little Caesars Arena on Sunday afternoon.

The Pistons (17-33) have dropped seven of their last 10 games, including their last five in a row. This marks their second game of a two-game home stand, but they have dropped four in a row at home and have some work to do on their 9-17 home record. The Pistons score an average of 109.0 points per game, but they are allowing opponents to score an average of 111.4 points per game. They are shooting 46.5 percent from the field, including 37.0 percent from long range, which is sixth best in the league. Derrick Rose leads the Pistons with 18.9 points and 5.9 assists per game. Andre Drummond averages 17.2 points and team highs with 15.7 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.7 blocks per game. Reggie Jackson has been solid since returning to action and is averaging 16.6 points, 3.8 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game, over the last five games.

Meanwhile, the Nuggets (34-15) have won seven of their last 10 games, including their last two in a row. This marks their second game of a two-game home stand, as they are coming off an impressive win in Milwaukee on Friday. The Nuggets enter Detroit looking to build on their 15-9 road record. The Nuggets average 10.5 points per game, but they are holding opponents to 106.1 points per game, which is fifth fewest in the league. The Nuggets average 8.2 steals per game and are limiting themselves to an average of 12.7 turnovers per game, which is sixth fewest in the league. Nikola Jokic leads the Nuggets with 19.9 points, 10.0 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game. Jamal Murray (ankle) will remain sidelined through Sunday's action. Will Barton continues to deliver across the board, averaging 16.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.3 steals, over the last 10 games.
