(Sports Network) - The Detroit Pistons try to extend their winning streak to three games when they visit the Denver Nuggets tonight at the Pepsi Center.

This is the first of two meetings between the clubs this season. The Pistons will host the Nuggets on March 18th at The Palace of Auburn Hills.

Detroit went 2-0 against the Nuggets last season, and has won four of the last six contests at Denver.

The Pistons play the second of a four-game road trip tonight. On Sunday, Rasheed Wallace scored 22 points and pulled down eight rebounds as Detroit routed the Phoenix Suns, 116-86, at US Airways Center.

Richard Hamilton and Jarvis Hayes both scored 18 points for the Central Division-leading Pistons, who opened the swing by winning for the 12th time in 14 games overall. Chauncey Billups finished with 14 points and 11 assists, while Antonio McDyess chipped in 12 points and 13 rebounds in the victory.

Detroit, which has won four of its last five as the visitor, is 19-10 on the road this season. The Pistons will visit Carlos Boozer and the Utah Jazz on Wednesday and the Los Angeles Clippers on March 1st in the finale of the current trek.

Denver attempts to put the brakes on a two-game losing streak this evening. On Saturday, Michael Redd scored a season-high 42 points to lead the Milwaukee Bucks to a 115-109 win over the Nuggets at the Bradley Center.

Allen Iverson finished with 26 points in the loss for the Nuggets, who have dropped three of their last four games overall. Carmelo Anthony contributed 25 points and seven rebounds, while J.R. Smith added 20 points in defeat.

The Nuggets, who have won two in a row as the host, are 22-6 at home this season. They will visit rookie phenom Kevin Durant and the Seattle SuperSonics on Wednesday at KeyArena.
