NBA
The Detroit Pistons lost to the Milwaukee Bucks 130-115 last night. Jerami Grant led Detroit with 31 points and 10 rebounds.
The loss came after the Pistons learned that rookie point guard Killian Hayes will miss extended time. Reports say that Hayes suffered a labral tear in his hip during Monday’s loss to the Bucks. If no surgery is needed, he could be back in four to six weeks. If surgery is necessary, he’ll likely miss the rest of the season.
Guard Derrick Rose left last night’s game with a knee contusion. He’s considered day to day.
The Pistons host the Phoenix Suns tomorrow night. Coverage begins at 6:35 on 99.3 The Lift.
