Detroit ended up a good deal behind Philadelphia when they played on Monday, losing 125-109. Blake Griffin wasn't much of a difference maker for the Pistons, as he played for 27 minutes but had just eight points on 2-for-14 shooting. 

Luke Kennard (knee) and Bruce Brown (calf) both missed the game with injuries. Griffin has missed nearly half of Detroit's games as the team tries to manage his playing time. He is playing on a surgically repaired knee. Kennard will be re-evaluated in January, Brown is questionable for Thursday. 

Meanwhile, Washington didn't have too much breathing room in its contest with New York on Monday, but still walked away with a 121-115 win. Among those leading the charge for Washington was Troy Brown Jr., who had a career game with 26 points and seven assists along with nine boards. Signed earlier in the day, Gary Payton II had 10 points, 11 rebounds, five assists and six steals.

In the last meeting between the teams on Dec. 16, Washington rolled to a 133-119 victory behind 35 points and 10 assists from Bradley Beal.  

The Pistons are fourth worst in the league in rebounds per game, with only 42.1 on average. The Wizards have had an even harder time: they are stumbling into the game with the fewest rebounds per game in the league, having accrued only 41.6 on average.
