DETROIT — Learning how to win has been quite the process for the young Pistons.
The group has only been able to accomplish that feat 15 times this season, tied for an NBA low, and the opportunity to capture the 16th victory was in play on Saturday night against the Indiana Pacers.
Detroit entered the fourth quarter knotted at 90, but Pacers forward Jalen Smith scored 11 of his game-high 20 points in the final 12 minutes to put an end to any hopes of the Pistons’ 16th win.
