The Charlotte Hornets defeated the Detroit Pistons , 87 - 77 , at Spectrum Arena on Wednesday . The Hornets ( 13 - 9 ) have often counted on their standout guard combo of Kemba Walker and Nicolas Batum this season to serve as the foundation of their offense , and their contributions came in particularly handy Wednesday against the Pistons ( 12 - 12 ) . Andre Drummond posted a 26 - point , 20 - rebound double - double for Detroit that also featured an assist and a pair of blocks , but the Hornets ' dynamic duo countered with a 25 - point tally from Walker and a 14 - point , 15 - rebound effort from Batum . Despite the trio of remarkable performances , it was largely a defensive - minded contest , with both teams shooting under 40 percent from the field , and with the Pistons posting a particularly unsightly 15 percent success rate from behind the arc . Tobias Harris was a distant second on Detroit with 14 points , seven rebounds , two assists and a block . Reggie Jackson continued to ramp up his minutes in his third game back from offseason knee problems , totaling 10 points , three rebounds , two assists and a block over 26 minutes . Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Marcus Morris had quiet nights on the scoreboard by their standards with a pair of seven - point contributions , but the latter did haul in 10 rebounds . Jon Leuer headlined a modest outing for the second unit with six points , six assists and four rebounds . Walker added four assists , three rebounds and two steals to his game - high scoring haul , while Batum also dished out three dimes . Marvin Williams was back in the starting lineup after missing six games with a knee injury and supplied 12 points , five rebounds and a steal . Cody Zeller posted nine points , six rebounds and a block , while Marco Belinelli led the reserves with 13 points , five rebounds , an assist and two steals in 28 minutes . The Pistons continue on the road and next visit with the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday evening , while the Hornets remain home to face off with the Orlando Magic on Friday night as well . The Hornets ' dynamic duo of Kemba Walker and Nicolas Batum combined for 39 points and 18 rebounds ( 14 of which came from Batum ) , which overcame Andre Drummond 's 26 - point , 20 - rebound double - double for Detroit . Marvin Williams returned after a six - game absence and supplied 12 points , while Marco Belinelli paced the bench with 13 points , five rebounds , an assist and two steals . Tobias Harris was a distant second on Detroit with 14 points , while Reggie Jackson saw another playing time boost and totaled 10 points , three rebounds , two assists and a block over 26 minutes . Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Marcus Morris supplied a pair of seven - point efforts , and the latter also hauled in 10 rebounds . Despite the trio of aforementioned remarkable performances , it was largely a defensive - minded contest , with both teams shooting under 40 percent from the field .
