The Detroit Pistons fell in a double-overtime thriller to the Cleveland Cavaliers 128-119. Detroit drops to 0-2 on the season while Cleveland is undefeated at 2-0.
The Cavs led by six at the half thanks to their young and quicker than quick guards Darius Garland and Collin Sexton getting to wherever they wanted to on the court. Veteran Cedi Osman was on fire and scored 15 in the opening half.
Detroit gave themselves some breathing room with a 33 to 22 third quarter. Detroit’s swarming defense, Cleveland’s carelessness, and Jerami Grant’s all-around play spurred the momentum shift.
