Marcus Sasser leads Pistons past Mavericks 107
DALLAS (AP) — Rookie Marcus Sasser scored 24 points in his hometown return, including 13 straight Detroit points during a stretch of the third quarter, and the Pistons beat the Dallas Mavericks — playing without Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving — 107-89 on Friday night.
The Pistons (14-67) led for most of the night against a Mavericks team that had won five consecutive games and 16 of 18 to secure a playoff spot. It was their largest win of the season and the third against an opponent that will finish with a winning record.
“It’s a blessing just to be able to play in this league, especially to be able to do it in front of my parents, my family,” said Sasser, who attended nearby Red Oak High School and the University of Houston. “It was real fun, for sure.”
“For him to have a game like that in his hometown in front of his family, I just thought it was a cool moment for us,” Pistons coach Monty Williams said.
