The Detroit Pistons ( 4 - 1 ) defeated the Phoenix Suns ( 3 - 3 ) 100 - 92 on Friday . In a battle of the Morris twins , Detroit and Marcus Morris ended up the victor , though brother Markieff performed admirably for Phoenix . Usually the better free - throw shooting team comes away with the win , but Detroit somehow prevailed while shooting just 50 percent from the charity stripe , lowlighted by a 2 - for - 11 effort from big man Andre Drummond . It very well may have been a case of how many times each team got to the free - throw line , as Detroit took 36 free - throws compared to Phoenix 's 13 attempts . The Pistons continued their fantastic form Friday and look like a major threat to make the playoffs for the first time since 2008 - 9 . The success this season has to be attributed to Andre Drummond and Reggie Jackson . Drummond put together a 12 - point , 17 - rebound performance in the win , which actually brought down his season average to around 19 rebounds a game . Reggie Jackson put together an all - around fantastic line as well , as he tallied 22 points , seven assists and six rebounds in the victory . Marcus Morris tallied 18 points and six rebounds . If these three continue to play at this level , they are a serious threat in the Eastern Conference this season . Detroit 's next game comes on Sunday in Portland against the surprising Trail Blazers . The Suns fell down by seven in a 14 - point first quarter , and they simply could n't bounce back after that . Phoenix was once again led by its guards , Eric Bledsoe and Brandon Knight , who totaled a combined 44 points , seven assists , and four steals in the loss . Markieff Morris matched his brother 's scoring total by amassing 18 points and four rebounds in the defeat . The last two losses for Phoenix have been against the Los Angeles Clippers and Detroit Pistons , and that may be due to the fact that those teams have two of the best rim protectors in the NBA . Phoenix will be in for another tough game on Sunday when they have to travel to Oklahoma City to take on the Thunder and their own dominant shot blocker in Serge Ibaka .
