Crabbe’s big night can’t bail out Nets
Scores 34 in loss to Detroit as Brooklyn awaits deadline
Allen Crabbe hasn’t lived up to his offensive potential here in Brooklyn this season.
But Wednesday night in Detroit, the sharp-shooter the Nets acquired this past offseason showed glimpses of just how potent he could be.
“That’s the Allen we want,” Nets head coach Kenny Atkinson said after Crabbe poured in 19 of his career-high 34 points during the fourth quarter of Brooklyn’s 115-106 loss to the Detroit Pistons in front of 15,114 fans at Motown’s Little Caesars Arena.
