Detroit — In the aftermath of the Kobe Bryant tragedy, many around the nation found it difficult to return their focus to basketball games.
In their first game since Bryant’s death on Sunday, the Pistons played one of their most lackluster games of the season.
They led for 46 seconds in the first half and trailed the rest of the way, including a 25-point deficit in the second half, falling to the Cleveland Cavaliers, 115-100, on Monday night at Little Caesars Arena.
