When the Pistons return to the playoffs this month for the first time since 2019, they'll likely face the New York Knicks or Indiana Pacers, per the Free Press.
The big picture: With three games left before the postseason, Detroit (43-36) holds the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Conference.
If the playoffs started today, the Pistons would face the No. 3 New York Knicks in a best-of-seven series.
The latest: The Pistons may be looking ahead to the playoffs already. They lost to the Kings last night at Little Caesars Arena, 127-117. It was their second straight loss.
Zoom out: All-Star Cade Cunningham appears healthy after missing six games with a left calf contusion.
What's next: In a potential playoff preview, the Pistons host the Knicks at 7pm Thursday at LCA.
