the Magic have built such a lead in the “reverse standings” that I don’t know tonight’s game qualifies as a, ahem, must-lose – 7:02 PM

Pistons head coach Dwane Casey on Jalen Suggs and Franz Wagner:
I think Jamahl has done a heck of a job with them. … I’m sure he is seeing some growth. I know we’re seeing growth with our young guys; it doesn’t equal wins. I think (growth) is the most important thing. – 5:54 PM

Dwane Casey on how Jerami Grant’s handling trade rumors: “He’s older, he’s 27. He’s seen trade rumors before and he’s been a pro. He’s working his behind off now with the COVID situation, reconditioning, and hasn’t had one moment of a negative attitude. He’s been a pro.” – 5:37 PM
