Pistons' Unstoppable Run Continues in Cleveland

The Detroit Pistons, fresh off a dominant 128-115 victory over the Bucks on Tuesday, arrive in Cleveland with a remarkable 60-22 record. Their offense, averaging 125 points per game over their last five, has been clicking on all cylinders, with Cade Cunningham leading the charge with 26.7 points and 9.3 assists in that span. The Cavaliers, meanwhile, have stumbled recently, dropping three of their last five, including a concerning 118-105 loss to the struggling Hornets. Their defense has been porous, allowing 115 points or more in each of those defeats.

The key matchup will be Cunningham against Darius Garland. Cunningham’s ability to consistently break down defenses and find open teammates will be too much for Cleveland’s inconsistent backcourt.

Detroit’s offensive firepower and recent stellar form are simply too much for a Cavaliers team struggling to find their footing. Expect the Pistons to keep their winning streak alive.

Pistons 126, Cavaliers 114.
