The Detroit Pistons quite methodically took care of the (5-18) Chicago Bulls Friday night at Little Caesars Arena, improving to 12-7 on the season. Detroit won the first quarter by 13 points and didn’t look back from there.
Detroit dominated the Bulls from deep, draining 13 triples to the Bulls’ three. 19-year-old rookie forward Wendell Carter Jr. gave the Pistons his best effort, scoring 28 points in 29 minutes and potentially losing a tooth (or getting it rearranged) as well. Jabari Parker had a few moments of general competence, but shot just 6-of-16 from the floor.
