Pistons’ Miserable Season Perfectly Summarized by Embarrassing Turnover vs. Rockets

The Pistons’ ineptitude was on full display early in the game. After Rockets center Alperen Sengun knocked down a free throw in the first quarter, Pistons guard Killian Hayes grabbed the loose ball and inbounded to Isaiah Stewart.
