Starting guard Reggie Jackson scored a game-high 30 points and an assists short to finished the game with a double-double to lead the Pistons to their 32nd win in 63 games played this season.

The (2-8) Los Angeles Lakers are in the valley of the sun, Phoenix, Arizona, to battle the (5-4) Suns. The Lakers, led by an all-around effort by Kobe Bryant, Jordan Clarkson and a defense that held the Detroit Pistons to 37-percent shooting from the field helped the purple and gold notch their second win of the season and first home win of the 2015-16 season. While in Phoenix, time permitting, the Lakers could view Camelback Mountain, for a challenging hike on Cholla trail, also a visit to see the preserved Victorian-style homes in Heritage Square. While there visit Pizzeria Bianco- that serves pizza that a New York Times Food Critic called the best pizza in the country or an excellent Mexican dinner at Barrio Café or dine at the El Chorro Lodge.…

When Kobe Bryant said he would forgo college and take his talents to the NBA the journey to greatness began. I think this is the only thing I didn't enjoy about Kobe Bryant's career when he was drafted 13th overall to the Charlotte Hornets then traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. One can only imagine what would've happened to the legend of Hornets basketball if that move was never made, but I digress it's fun to dream. He quickly became a Hollywood star transforming the Lakers organization once again. He helped the NBA transition from the tail end of Michael Jordan's career to the Kobe era and realize they would be just fine.…

After defeating both the Cleveland Cavaliers and Charlotte Hornets in consecutive nights, the Philadelphia 76ers were back in action on Sunday taking on the Milwaukee Bucks. It was an action-packed game that saw the Sixers get out to a 10-0 lead in the opening frame and ultimately scoring 72 points in the first half. However, the Bucks did not back down, thanks to a tremendous performance from All-Star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who had 35 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists. Antetokounmpo's outstanding performance plus the Sixers' deteriorating second half play, helped Milwaukee to a 118-110 victory.…
