Detroit's brief two-game road stint continues tonight as the Pistons encounter the New York Knicks on their home floor for the second and final time this season. Both teams enter the night fresh off double-digit drubbings and are looking to secure a victory to restore fan hope.
Each franchise will likely be without a key starter, with Cade Cunningham recently listed as questionable due to reported shin soreness. New York’s defensive stalwart Mitchell Robinson is out after suffering a knee injury in the Knicks’ Nov. 5 clash against the 76ers.
With a brutal six-game west coast trip looming, tonight provides Detroit an opportunity to nab a moral-boosting W prior to a tough couple of weeks on the road.
