Pistons hope to avoid Celtics’ Reign of (3s) Terror
Yesterday, the Detroit Pistons allowed the Milwaukee Bucks to shoot 56% from 3 and make a season-high 23 shots from the perimeter. Tonight, they face the Boston Celtics . Gulp. Boston puts up an NBA-leading 50.9 three-pointers per game, six more than the closest team. Detroit, meanwhile, ranks 28th in three-point percentage allowed, at nearly 38% per game. What could go wrong? Everything. The perhaps saving grace for Detroit is that Jayson Tatum and Jrue Holiday are both out tonight.
