The Golden State Warriors finished off their first East Coast road trip on Friday against the Detroit Pistons. While the Pistons are one of the worst teams in the NBA, Golden State entered on the back half of a back-to-back and were without two stars (Stephen Curry and Draymond Green) and two rotation players (Andre Iguodala and Otto Porter Jr.). Still, despite some late-game drama, the Warriors pulled out a 105-102 victory.
Gary Payton II and Juan Toscano-Anderson replaced Curry and Green in the starting lineup, and the Warriors got off to a fast start.
