The Detroit Pistons will be without Isaiah Stewart for their game against the Milwaukee Bucks due to right knee inflammation, marking a setback as they head into the final weekend of the regular season. Stewart's absence adds to the challenges for the Pistons, who are also missing rookie Jaden Ivey, recovering from a broken left fibula. In better news, Cade Cunningham is back on the court after missing six games with a calf injury, contributing significantly with a 36-point performance in a recent win over the New York Knicks.

As the Pistons fight for playoff position, they currently sit sixth in the Eastern Conference, where a successful weekend could elevate them to fifth place, setting up a matchup with either the Knicks or Indiana Pacers in the first round of the playoffs starting April 19. The stakes are high as they aim to close the regular season strongly with back-to-back games against the Bucks.
