Bargnani, Turkoglu lead Raptors over Pistons

By AP

AUBURN HILLS, MI – Andrea Bargnani scored 21 points, Hedo Turkoglu added 11 points and a season-best 11 assists and the Toronto Raptors beat the short-handed Detroit Pistons 94-64 on
Wednesday night.

Detroit shot 28 percent from the floor and matched the lowest point total in franchise history since the shot clock was implemented for the 1954-55 season.

Detroit, which has lost six straight, played without Ben Gordon (ankle), Richard Hamilton (hamstring) and Tayshaun Prince (back).

Charlie Villanueva went 0 of 7 from the field trying to play through a foot injury.

Jarrett Jack added 14 points for Toronto, while Chris Bosh had 12 points and nine rebounds.

Reserve Will Bynum had 12 points for the Pistons.
