The Detroit Pistons will take a six game road losing streak into Charlotte tonight to take on the Hornets.
The Hornets are clinging to the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference while the Pistons are currently tied for the second-worst record in the NBA.
After the Magic lost their last game, the Pistons are now tied with Orlando, three games behind the Houston Rockets for the worst record in the league with just a half game separating Detroit from the Timberwolves.
Detroit has just nine games left to play and will have two crucial games against the Magic and Timberwolves that could decide their lottery odds.
