Locked On Pistons POSTCAST: Detroit Pistons COME UP SHORT vs Defending Champion Boston Celtics 124-118

The Detroit Pistons put on a commendable performance against the Boston Celtics at Little Caesars Arena but fell short, losing 124-118 on Saturday night. Despite an explosive start from Boston, with Jayson Tatum scoring 37 points and dominating the floor, the Pistons fought back valiantly. Jaden Ivey led Detroit with an impressive 26 points, while Cade Cunningham provided a balanced offense, notching 21 points and 10 assists. Jalen Duren was perfect from the field, scoring 15 points on 7-of-7 shooting, and Tobias Harris led the rebounding efforts with 11 boards. Detroit showed resilience by clawing back from an early deficit, even taking the lead briefly in the third quarter, but Boston's efficient shooting from beyond the arc, hitting 22 three-pointers at a 45.8% clip, proved too much to handle. The Pistons will look to bounce back as they continue their season, seeking their first win in the upcoming games.
