After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the Pistons outlasted the 76ers 124-115. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
