The Pistons had yet to beat the Atlanta Hawks after failing to do so in back-to-back games at Little Caesars Arena in October.
That trend continued as Detroit fell in a 130-105 loss to the Hawks on Friday at State Farm Arena. It marked the fifth straight loss for the Pistons (8-27), their third five-game skid of the season. The loss also marked the Pistons' third consecutive loss by at least 15 points.
The Pistons started the game well from 3-point range with four of their first six triples going down. Isaiah Stewart, who failed to make his last six triples entering Friday night, knocked down two 3-pointers in the first quarter.
