*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Thursday, March 27th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Friday, March 28th.
Cleveland Cavaliers
It was just a four-game blip but it may end up being the most costly time to endure a losing streak as the Thunder capitalized on the stutter step to put distance between themselves.
While the Cavs have the East’s top spot locked up arguably gaining home court throughout the playoffs is an equally valuable commodity (particularly if they win the East but end up facing the Thunder).

Cavaliers Stats
Through this point in the season, Cleveland ranks first offensively (121.6), and eighth defensively (111.5) with a plus +10.1 net differential that ranks second overall.
Like their record, Cleveland’s performance against the spread is impressive posting a 44-27-1 record this season.
Cavaliers Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Evan Mobley, PF (questionable — rest)
- Ty Jerome, SG (OUT — knee)
- Jaylon Tyson, F (OUT — knee)
- Donovan Mitchell, SG (OUT — groin)
Detroit Pistons
With their current hot streak, the Pistons have moved into the fifth seed, a half-game up on the Bucks. Detroit still has a shot at home court if they can make up the 1.5 games they trail the Pacers by.
Cade Cunningham is the key as he’s missed time due to injury. But this is a precarious choice as Detroit’s best shot at closing strong is having him in the lineup but conversely having him as close to 100% for the postseason is inarguably more valuable.
Pistons Stats
Detroit ranks tied for 12th on offense (114.4) and ninth defensively (111.7) with a net differential of plus +2.7, ranking 10th overall.
The Pistons perform above the average with a 39-32-2 record against the spread through 73 contests.
Pistons Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Cade Cunningham, PG (OUT — calf)
- Jaden Ivey, PG (OUT indefinitely — broken fibula)
