ImpactBogdanovic was dominant heading into the All-Star break with at least 28 points in his last three appearances, but he was much less effective during Detroit's first game after the layoff. However, Thursday's performance seemed to simply be an off night for the 33-year-old, who has scored in double figures in all but three of his appearances this season. He'll have a chance to bounce back Saturday against Toronto.
