In the moments immediately following Detroit’s loss to the Boston Celtics earlier this week, a pair of former teammates reunited near mid-court.

Detroit’s brief two-game road stint continues tonight as the Pistons encounter the New York Knicks on their home floor for the second and final time this season.

New York — When Killian Hayes touched the ball for the first time on Wednesday night, he didn’t look to dribble past his defender. He didn’t pump fake, nor did he look to pass the ball back to one of his teammates. The third-year Pistons guard shot without hesitation and drained a 3-pointer right over
St. Cecilia’s gym, located near Livernois and I-96 on Detroit’s westside, occupies an important place in Detroit basketball lore. And now, the Detroit Pistons will honor the famous facility.

Boston — Cade Cunningham shined in three games against the Boston Celtics as a rookie last season, but that same magic didn’t carry over to his first game as a sophomore against the defending Eastern Conference champions. The Celtics disrupted Cunningham’s offensive flow and limited him to a season-low four points in Detroit’s lopsided 128-112
We hear from coach Dwane Casey after his Pistons suffer a 128-112 loss in Boston on Wednesday. #DetroitBasketball
Let’s get the ugliness out of the way. The Detroit Pistons trailed by double digits the majority of the night and fell 128-112. Cade Cunningham had his worst, least impactful game of the season. His shot was off, he settled for bad shots, was a poor floor general, and got cooked several times on defense.
For two quarters, the Detroit Pistons managed to avoid a substantial deficit despite shooting the ball poorly. But Jayson Tatum ended any hopes of a Pistons comeback in the third quarter. Tatum scored 16 of his game-high 31 points in the first five minutes of the third period, helping the Boston Celtics lead by as
Boston — The majority of the Pistons’ opponents throughout the early part of this season only possessed one All-Star on their team.

Boston — When Cade Cunningham plays against the Boston Celtics, he elevates his game. With the Pistons playing the Celtics twice this week and Cunningham’s history against the defending Eastern Conference champions, the Pistons were hoping that trend continues. The second-year guard has been Detroit’s leading scorer against the Celtics in each of their last
The Pistons brutal early season schedule continues as they face the Celtics in Boston. The Pistons have only had a few games this season where they have been expected to win, which is why they come into this matchup with only 3 wins. The Pistons are coming off a 15-point 2nd half comeback in their
Detroit — Pistons guards Hamidou Diallo and Killian Hayes trapped Oklahoma City’s Josh Giddey and forced a steal early in the fourth quarter of a tight game, leading to a thunderous two-handed slam by Diallo, a former NBA Slam Dunk Contest champion. About 10 seconds later, Giddey attempted a floater but was denied by a
When Troy Weaver traded for Bojan Bogdanovic before the start of the season, some assumed it would be a half-year rental and the veteran would be flipped to the highest bidder at the deadline.
