After the Cavs started on a 15-0 lead, Detroit was able to make it 55-49 at the half before Cleveland fell apart in the fourth quarter.

Darius Garland has 24 points and Evan Mobley followed with 18. Meanwhile, Cade Cunningham recorded a triple-double after failing to score in the first half. Cunningham and Bey were strong forces that propelled the Pistons down the stretch while the Cavs failed to execute offensively.
