Pistons face elimination after OT loss

Between the lines: Detroit had a chance to win, up nine points with about 2:30 left in regulation. But the offense sputtered and the Cavs got hot from outside, forcing OT.

Cade Cunningham led all scorers with 39 points, with seven rebounds, nine assists and six turnovers.

The intrigue: The Pistons played without sharpshooter Duncan Robinson, who sat out with lower back soreness. Daniss Jenkins started in his place, scoring 19.

Zoom out: Eminem and 50 Cent, sitting courtside, were among the celebs at Little Caesars Arena for the game.

💭 Joe's thought bubble: It's the same story as last season — Cade needs more help.
