Pistons vs. Pacers preview: Game Time, TV, Odds, and More

Detroit Bad Boys

Cade Cunningham is rightly getting notice for a leap and likely All-Star nod, but the reason the Detroit Pistons are entering the break above .500 is all the help around Cunningham. Veteran shooters Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway Jr. have provided much-needed spacing to allow Cunningham to work. And when defenses decide to collapse on Cade, Cunningham is savvy enough to kick out to his open shooters. When that happens, they are hitting shots. Hopefully, that will continue against the surging Indiana Pacers. Indy will be without Bennedict Mathurin, but the Pistons will still need to find answers for Pascal Siakim and Tyrese Haliburton.
