The Pistons won in Atlanta and are on their way back to Detroit to host the Clippers Monday night.
They have won six straight games, and tonight was the first of those wins that didn’t come by double digits

Zaccharie Risacher was not backing down from Cade Cunningham to force that jumpball, even when Cunningham shook him to the floor. – 8:22 PM

There have been lots of holes in the Hawks’ doubling-Cade defense. But Pistons’ feel for the game has changed and they’re missing more looks than they should. – 7:34 PM

The Hawks have opened this quarter sending doubles at Cunningham. They just blitzed him on the sideline and they’ve gotten back-to-back 3s.
Hawks down 2. – 7:27 PM

HALF: Pistons 76, Hawks 68
Cade Cunningham makes a fingeroll layup at the buzzer.
The Hawks did make 50% of their overall baskets in the 2Q but they had little answer for the Pistons scorching offense. – 7:10 PM
