The Detroit Pistons are coming off of a dominate 36 point win against the Cleveland Cavaliers. On the back-end of a back-to-back, the Pistons are taking on Dwane Casey’s former team the Toronto Raptors.
And the Pistons are going to catch a bit of a break, with superstar Kawhi Leonard now being listed as out due to rest.
This presents a great opportunity for the Pistons. With a win tonight, the Detroit Pistons will have climbed their way to the 6th seed.
The Pistons can’t take the Raptors lightly with Leonard out, however. The Raptors present one of the deepest teams in the NBA, and still are led by All Star Kyle Lowry.
