Charlotte Hornets at Detroit Pistons GameThread

Disclaimer: This GameThread was put together long before the trade deadline. Much of the info in this article could be inaccurate if the Charlotte Hornets and/or Detroit Pistons make a trade.

The Hornets (24-32) are up in Michigan taking on the Pistons (27-30) tonight just five hours after the NBA trade deadline. The Pistons sit in the eighth spot in the Eastern Conference, so a win tonight could help the Hornets regain some of the ground they've lost over the last couple of months.

By the way, check in on our Facebook page before the game for a live broadcast with Steve Forrest. He'll be recapping the trade deadline and previewing tonight's game. Ask him questions!

Here's what you need to know to tune in:
