Detroit will face the Los Angeles Clippers tonight for the first of six straight road encounters along the west coast.
The young Pistons will embark on arguably their toughest stretch of the season without the services of Cade Cunningham (shin soreness) and Isaiah Stewart (sprained toe). There's a chance Cunningham is able to suit up next week, but Stewart has been ruled out for the next 2-3 weeks.
Though the Clippers boast an above .500 record, a mixture of health and poor offense has plagued the title hopefuls in the early part of the season.
