Field Level Media

The Detroit Pistons had an unexpected layoff this week, though it wasn't pleasant.

The team got stuck in Dallas, thanks to a combination of mechanical issues with its plane and poor weather conditions. The Pistons will return to action with a back-to-back set of home games, beginning with a matchup against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday.

Detroit was supposed to begin the homestand against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday after losing to the Mavericks 111-105 on Monday night. However, the Pistons didn't leave Texas until Thursday afternoon.

The Pistons return home having lost nine of their past 11 games.
