The Charlotte Hornets face the Detroit Pistons in a regular season NBA game on Saturday, Dec. 20, 2025 (12/20/25) at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Mich.

One of the feature first-time nominees for the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame spent some of his best seasons with the Pistons.

Detroit has listed Duncan Robinson as probable with a left knee contusion that caused him to exit Thursday’s loss early on, though he is expected to play against Charlotte. The Pistons have listed LeVert as questionable due to right knee soreness and he is in danger of missing his first game since November 29.

The NBA has announced that referees made three mistakes in the final two minutes of the Detroit Pistons' loss to the Dallas Mavericks.

The Detroit Pistons are ranked as high as the No. 2 team in the NBA, according to many of the biggest sports media outlets.

By leading with their season motto, "Control the Chaos," the Pistons rallied from 18 points down, but still fell short in an overtime loss to the Mavericks.

Pistons coach JB Bickerstaff questioned the officiating after an OT loss to the Mavericks, directing a subtle jab at referee John Goble.
