The Detroit Pistons just can’t seem to catch a break. After losing 10 straight games, they got a big win over the Memphis Grizzlies Tuesday night, but they’re struggling again tonight against the Philadelphia 76ers who are just embarrassing this Pistons team. Granted, Detroit didn’t have star center Andre Drummond on the floor or power forward Greg Monroe, but Nerlens Noel still embarrassed veteran forward Tayshaun Prince on the alley-oop slam.

Nerlens Noel, a 20-year-old 6’11 center for the Sixers has been improving throughout the season, especially recently. In his last three games he has 16, 17 and 18 points and has been improving in his rebounding as well. He has 11 against the Detroit Pistons tonight in the fourth quarter, along with this highlight reel, top-10 dunk.
