Up next for the Lakers: Friday at Detroit
When: 4:30 PST.
Where: The Palace.
On the air: TV: TWC SportsNet, TWC Deportes; Radio: 710, 1330.
Records: Lakers 8-8; Pistons 6-9.
Record vs. Pistons: 1-0.
Update: The Pistons are a bizarre mix of players with some equally perplexing results (4-4 at home, with losses to Atlanta and a depleted Chicago team). They added free agents Brandon Jennings and Josh Smith but their leading scorer is a holdover, reserve guard Rodney Stuckey (16.6 points a game). The Lakers beat the Pistons almost two weeks ago at Staples Center, 114-99, with Jordan Hill totaling a career-high 24 points and 17 rebounds.
