Pistons trio to miss fifth straight game


Posted Jan 20 2010 6:40PM

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) -- The Detroit Pistons will be without three key players against the Boston Celtics.

Tayshaun Prince (knee), Ben Gordon (groin) and Will Bynum (ankle) did not play Wednesday night -- the fifth game in a row all three have been out. Bynum has now missed 10 straight games, while Gordon has only played in 25 of Detroit's 41 games and Prince has been in active in just nine.

Kevin Garnett (knee) missed his 11th game of the season for Boston, but Celtics coach Doc Rivers said that Garnett looked "fantastic" in Tuesday's practice, and could play Friday against Portland.
