Behind Cade Cunningham's 42, Pistons Complete Season Sweep of Knicks
Cade Cunningham scored 42 points with 13 assists and eight rebounds to help Detroit improve to 41-13, the NBA's best record, despite missing two key players.
- On Thursday night, a Pistons guard scored 42 points and had 13 assists as Detroit beat New York 126-111, completing a season sweep of the Knicks.
- After an early Knicks burst, Detroit responded with a 21-8 run and closed the half on a 7-0 run to lead 58-48 at halftime.
- Detroit built a 19-point lead at 105-86 on a Jenkins tip-in, with Reed and Harris scoring for the Pistons.
- Playing short-handed, the Pistons missed Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart due to suspensions from the Feb. 9 brawl, and the Knicks cut the gap to 120-109 with a Brunson 3 with 1:33 left but could not rally; both teams play Saturday.
- Early in the third quarter, the Knicks shot 23%, with Landry Shamet scoring 15 and Josh Hart 11, while Duncan Robinson hit back-to-back 3s before Detroit extended their lead.
