Inside the Article:
The Detroit Pistons will face off against the Golden State Warriors tonight, with both teams missing key players. The Pistons are without Cade Cunningham, and the Warriors have been without Stephen Curry. Despite this, the Warriors have won five games in a row and hold a tie for 8th place in the Western Conference. On the other hand, Detroit is coming off a disappointing loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, in which their issues with defense and shooting were exacerbated.
Why it matters: This game will be a test for both teams, as the Warriors try to continue their winning streak and the Pistons aim to bounce back from their previous loss. It will also be a chance for the Pistons to prove that they can beat the defending champs again, as they did in their last meeting against Golden State.
