Let’s see what you can do, Tolu Smith. The Detroit Pistons will be relying on their two-way center to play plenty of minutes tonight against the Toronto Raptors as the Pistons will be playing their first
game without Jalen Duren or Isaiah Stewart. Both were suspended for their actions during a brawl with the Charlotte Hornets on Monday night. The Pistons will also be missing Ron Holland, who is still out for personal reasons. This is Detroit’s last game before the All-Star break, and you’d like to see them end the unofficial first half on a high note. But not only are they playing short-handed, but they are also playing a dangerous Toronto Raptors team.
Toronto has won three of four games, granted that was against the Jazz, Bulls, and Pacers. But they always seem to be feisty against the Pistons. I want a nice, quiet game that can ease us into the break. Is that too much to ask?
