In a thrilling Game 1 of the second-round playoff series, the Detroit Pistons triumphed over the Cleveland Cavaliers with a score of 111-101. Cade Cunningham was the standout performer for the Pistons, contributing 23 points, while Tobias Harris added 20 points and Duncan Robinson chipped in with 19 points. This victory is significant as it marks the end of the Pistons' NBA-record-tying 12-game postseason losing streak against the Cavaliers, a streak that dates back to the 2007 Eastern Conference finals. The Pistons started strong, leading 37-31 after the first quarter and extending their lead to 59-46 at halftime. Although the Cavaliers, led by Donovan Mitchell with 23 points, managed to tie the game late in the fourth quarter, the Pistons responded decisively. Jalen Duren's crucial blocks and dunks, assisted by Cunningham, helped secure the win. The Pistons, who won the Central Division by eight games this season, are looking to build on this momentum in Game 2, scheduled for Thursday night in Detroit.
