Pistons routed by Wolves 105-82




AUBURN HILLS, Mich. - The Timberwolves has the league-worst 29 percent from behind the arc, hit 14 3-pointers Tuesday night in a 105-82 rout of the hapless Detroit Pistons.

Detroit snapped a 10-game losing streak Saturday night in Charlotte, but certainly didn't build off that win against Minnesota.

Nikola Pekovic provided a perfect complement to Minnesota's 3-point barrage, dominating the paint for 18 points and 11 rebounds. Barea matched a season-best with 21 points off the bench, while Luke Ridnour scored 15 and Ricky Rubio added 14 points and nine assists.

Greg Monroe had 11 points and 12 rebounds for Detroit, while point guard Jose Calderon scored 14 points, but had only one assist. Monroe and Calderon were the only Pistons to reach double figures, until Khris Middleton got to 10 with an uncontested dunk in the final 20 seconds.
