Vaught Ticketed in Loss

Forward Loy Vaught, who helped lead Michigan to the 1989 NCAA championship, loves playing at Detroit.

Vaught needed 15 tickets for family and friends for Friday night’s game against the Pistons at the Palace of Auburn Hills.

Vaught got off to a good start, scoring the Clippers’ first six points and getting eight of their first 10.

But Vaught missed four of his final six shots and scored only six points in the final three quarters as the Clippers suffered their worst defeat of the season, losing by 28 points.

How do you pack for 12 days on the road?

Guard Malik Sealy, who owns a company that manufactures ties, brought an outfit for each day.

Sealy was resplendent in custom-made leather and suede overalls for Friday’s loss.

“You’ve got to pack a lot of underwear, that’s the most important thing,” he said.
