Detroit — Reggie Jackson is back. He’s not what he was in his best year with the Pistons, but he’s back nonetheless.
Jackson, who has missed 42 games because of a back injury, made a successful return, scoring 22 points, with three rebounds and four assists in 20 minutes, helping the Pistons cruise to a 127-106 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night at Little Caesars Arena.
Jackson didn’t show many signs of rust from the long layoff, going 8-of-14 from the field and 3-of-7 on 3-pointers, providing some needed minutes to the point guard position, which has been decimated by injuries all season.
