Game preview
Detroit Pistons (36-12) vs Denver Nuggets (33-17) — The Pistons, led by the all-around game of Cade Cunningham (25.24 PPG, 9.79 APG) and the rebounding prowess of Jalen Duren (10.66 RPG), face a tough challenge against the Denver Nuggets. Detroit maintains a strong home scoring average of 117.3 PPG, but will need to contain the dominant force that is Nikola Jokić (29.26 PPG, 12.0 RPG, 10.71 APG) who leads the Nuggets in all major categories. Denver is a high-scoring team with an average of 119.9 PPG. The Nuggets will be without Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and Cameron Johnson (knee), which could open up some opportunities for Detroit's offense. Christian Braun is also a game-time decision for Denver with an ankle injury. Caris LeVert and Tolu Smith are GTD for the Pistons, so monitoring their status is key for depth. This game could be a high-scoring affair with both teams averaging over 117 points.
