The Detroit Pistons continued what has been an eventful West Coast swing in the late hours of Sunday night, reeling off their second win in four games against Pistons franchise legend Chauncey Billups' team. 

Detroit was led by 28 points from Cade Cunningham, 20 points from Tobias Harris and 18 points from Jalen Duren as they outscored the Blazers in three of four quarters en route to a 119-112 win. 

Following the game, Pistons sharpshooter Malik Beasley shared his thoughts on the road trip so far, sending an enthusiastic seven-word message to Detroit fans after the game on social media. 

"W!!! 2-2 on west coast ain't bad!! Let's keep rolling," Beasley said on X. 

The former Milwaukee Bucks two-guard has been averaging 16.6 points per game this season, ranking third on coach JB Bickerstaff's team. 

His improved all-around game has helped pick up the slack left by the injury exit of Jaden Ivey, who only recently was able to remove his walking boot and return to the Pistons' practice facility as a participant, albeit gingerly with a return for next season the likely target. 

The Pistons will return home for two consecutive games against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday and Thursday before welcoming the Western Conference leading Oklahoma City Thunder to Little Caesars Arena in downtown Detroit.
