Pistons G Hamilton out vs. Bucks

Dec 28, 2008 - 2:02 AM MILWAUKEE (Ticker) -- Detroit Pistons guard Richard Hamilton did not play in Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks with a groin injury.

Hamilton scored eight points in Friday's 90-88 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder but played just 29 minutes. He may have aggravated the lingering ailment during the game.

He has averaged 17.2 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists this season for the Pistons, who have played him alongside guards Allen Iverson and Rodney Stuckey in the team's new small lineup.
