The Detroit Pistons' season of turmoil in 2023-24 has hit rock bottom, achieving an unfortunate milestone in the team's history.

With their 67th season loss, they are set to finish with their worst record in franchise history.

In their final home game of the season at Little Caesars Arena on Thursday, April 11, the Pistons lost to the Chicago Bulls by 127-105.

The Pistons currently have the worst record in the league, at 13-67, with only two games left in the regular season.

The previous franchise record for the worst season was held by the 1979-80 Pistons team, which finished with a record of 16-66. The current team cannot surpass this record and can win at most 15 games. 

The Pistons are scheduled to face the Dallas Mavericks and San Antonio Spurs on April 12 and 14, respectively, both on the road, to finish off their forgettable campaign.
