(AP) — Road victories have been difficult to come by for the Detroit Pistons, and the few they’ve earned have not come against top-tier competition.

They’re coming off one such win but will visit a much better opponent and a city where they haven’t won in nearly five years as they face the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night.

The Pistons (9-21) had dropped six straight before sweeping a home-and-home series with woeful Washington, winning for only the third time in 16 road contests with Saturday’s 96-87 victory.

“We just got to continue to build our habits,” coach Lawrence Frank said. “It’s obviously good to taste wins especially when we’ve lost a bunch in a row.”
