Detroit Pistons:
The Pistons fell 112-99 to the LA Clippers on Sunday in the team's second straight loss. Cade Cunningham led the way for Detroit with 27 points, 9 assists, and 5 rebounds. Jalen Duren finished with 18 points and a game-high 14 rebounds.
Despite the loss, the Pistons (24-8) remain atop the Eastern Conference and second in the league behind the Oklahoma City Thunder. Detroit's 24 wins are tied for the third-most through 32 games of a season in franchise history.
LA Lakers:
After a 16-6 start to the season, the Lakers are 4-4 in their last eight games. The team is coming off a 125-101 win against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. Luka Doncic scored 34 points, LeBron James finished with 24, and Nick Smith Jr. added 21 off the bench.
James turns 41 today, and tonight's game would make him the 12th player in NBA history to play at 41 years or older.
