The #Pistons are trying to avoid NBA history tonight for the most consecutive losses within a single season. Here’s are how the players have dealt with the 26-game losing streak. pic.twitter.com/V11zCATSc6 – 6:30 PM

Jacque Vaughn: “It just hasn’t produced (enough defensively); so it’s staring us in the face and the numbers are behind it. I’m definitely concentrating on getting this win tonight, but not to say that we won’t have a different starting lineup in the beginning of the year.” #Nets – 5:44 PM

Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
I asked Jacque Vaughn about this starting unit’s woes, and he admits they haven’t been as efficient as they need to be or he wants them to be. Admits there could be a change by the New Year. #Nets – 5:41 PM

Evan Barnes @evan_b
Lonnie Walker IV got sick this week, per Jacque Vaughn, so he will not play this week (was supposed to return this week) since he hasn’t been on the court working out.
Walker will be OUT through Friday’s game at the Wizards. – 5:37 PM

Meghan Triplett @Meghan_Triplett
Lonnie Walker IV did not travel with team to Detroit and he will not return to action this week for @BrooklynNets, per Jacque Vaughn.
Vaughn said Lonnie was sick with a virus and has not been able to get back on the court the last 3 days as previously planned. – 5:35 PM

Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
Jacque Vaughn said Lonnie Walker has been ill and will miss tonight and at least the next two games. #Nets – 5:34 PM

The Bucks submitted an injury report for Wednesday’s game against the Nets earlier this afternoon.
Giannis Antetokounmpo – questionable (right calf injury management)
Jae Crowder – out (left adductor surgery)
Marques Bolden, TyTy Washington Jr. – out (two-way) – 5:23 PM

Larry Lage @LarryLage
Pistons coach Monty Williams, 2 hours before Detroit shoots to avoid having an NBA record alone with 27 straight losses, says the unwanted mark has to motivate the team, but said he’s responsible. “Streaks like that are attached to a coach,” he said. – 5:20 PM

Charlotte Hornets @hornets
Feelin’ fresh to start the road trip.

Will the #Pistons break the streak tonight? 👀 pic.twitter.com/IVzkJFN6ec – 4:53 PM

Eric Woodyard @E_Woodyard
There’s some conflicting emotions going on within sports fans in Detroit with the state of the #Lions — in the best of times — and #Pistons — experiencing the worst.
I tried to describe those feelings today on @SportsCenter. pic.twitter.com/g2O5u7VhQ6 – 3:55 PM

The Nets and Suns agreed to a blockbuster deal last season. Is it too early to declare a winner?

Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
Still in Nashville, so I won’t be covering tonight’s game at LCA. @KGoodwill24 will be there in my place. If the Pistons lose to the Nets, they will break the record for the longest single-season losing streak in NBA history (27). I’ll be flying to Boston tomorrow, though! – 1:30 PM

Erik Slater @erikslater_
The Phoenix Suns have looked like a below-average team early this season after re-defining the term “all-in” this summer.
How that development could impact the Brooklyn Nets’ trade plans: clutchpoints.com/nets-suns-broo… – 1:07 PM
