Detroit ended its 28-game NBA losing streak. The Pistons repeated, but did not update the anti-recor

Today, within the regular NBA season, Detroit hosted Toronto on their home court.

Coming into this match, the Pistons were enduring a 28-game losing streak, matching the ignominious record set by Philadelphia in the 2014/15 and 2015/16 seasons.

Right from the outset, the Pistons demonstrated their resolve not to replicate that record, securing victories in the first two quarters (25:24 and 27:40). In the latter part of the game, Toronto picked up their pace, snatching the third quarter by a four-point margin (42:38). In the final stretch, although the visitors were close to a victory, Detroit managed to hold on and lost by only two points (39:41).

The match concluded with a score of 129:127 in favor of Detroit, marking only their third win this season. Their last victory came back in late October. Presently, Detroit ranks last in the Eastern Conference, with a record of 3-29 (0.094), while the closest team, Washington, stands at 6-25 (0.194).

In the previous season, the Pistons also occupied the bottom position in the East, securing victories in just seventeen out of 82 matches (0.207).
