Pistons fall to 76ers in season finale, tied for best odds of landing No. 1 pick

Philadelphia — In the last game of the season, the Pistons weren’t just going to roll over and take a loss.

Though there were implications for their draft position, the Pistons played a tough game down to the wire against the Philadelphia 76ers before falling, 118-106, on Sunday night at Wells Fargo Center in the season finale.

With the loss, the Pistons (23-59) guaranteed themselves the third-worst record in the league, and as a result, they’ll be tied for the best odds (14%) of landing the No. 1 pick in the draft. The lowest they can fall is to the seventh spot.
