The Detroit Pistons claim victory against the New York Knicks with a final score of 115-106, keeping their playoff hopes alive. Star player Cade Cunningham led the team, scoring 36 points and adding eight assists. This win ties the Pistons for their highest win total since the 2007-08 season. The Pistons are in a position to secure the 5-seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs with two remaining games against the Milwaukee Bucks. A loss would drop them to the 6-seed and a likely face-off with the currently 3-seeded Knicks.

The team showed resilience after trailing by as much as 13 points. They took control in the second half, outshooting the Knicks 60% to 35.4%, and forcing critical turnovers late in the game. Jalen Duren and Tobias Harris also contributed significantly, scoring 18 points and 17 points respectively.
