MLB

NBA
The Detroit Pistons fell to the San Antonio Spurs 86-81 last night. Andre Drummond had 17 points and 13 rebounds. The Pistons continue their preseason schedule Thursday evening against the Spurs in Atlanta. Hear selected Pistons regular-season games on AM 1400 and FM 99.3, WCCY.
Piston’s point guard Reggie Jackson underwent a platelet-rich plasma treatment for his ailing left knee and right thumb yesterday. He’ll miss six to eight weeks.
NHL
The Detroit Red Wings placed Teemu Pulkkinen on waivers yesterday. The Finnish forward could be claimed by another team until noon today, and it is likely that will happen. If he clears waivers, he’ll be assigned to the Grand Rapids Griffins. Pulkkinen has been a consistent scorer for the Griffins the past several seasons, but has not been able to translate that success to the NHL. Yesterday, coach Jeff Blashill said that either Andreas Athanasiou or Anthony Mantha will start the season in Detroit. Either can be shifted to Grand Rapids without going through the waiver process. NHL rosters must be set by 5:00 this afternoon. The Wings open the regular season Thursday night at Tampa Bay. Hear the broadcast on AM 1400 and FM 99.3, WCCY.
NFL
In last night’s NFL game, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers edged the Carolina Panthers 17-14. If you played The Wolf Pro Football Challenge, you must have picked at least 11 games correctly to be eligible to be our weekly winner.
