The Pistons finished 44-38—their first winning season in over a decade. At the heart of their resurgence was a fully healthy Cade Cunningham, the explosive development of Jalen Duren, and the steady frontcourt presence of Tobias Harris.

The Detroit Pistons are on a two-game losing streak as they’re preparing to take on the New York Knicks in a potential first-round playoff matchup inside Little Caesars Arena.

New York beating Detroit had become something of an NBA certainty, with the Knicks doing it 16 straight times over a span of five years.
