Stanley Johnson scores 26 points in NBA preseason debut

The Detroit Pistons withstood a first-quarter flurry from Paul George, got Andre Drummond some work in the post and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope returned to his shooting form.

The highly-touted first-round pick out of Arizona scored 26 points in his debut off the bench Tuesday in the Pistons’ 115-112 preseason loss to the Indiana Pacers at The Palace of Auburn Hills.

Johnson played 34 minutes, finished 8 of 17 from the floor and made three of his six 3-point attempts.
