The Detroit Pistons kept the momentum rolling at Little Caesars Arena, overpowering the Indiana Pacers 127–112 and extending their winning streak to 10 straight games. Detroit now sits at 12–2, holding the second-best record in the entire NBA with a .857 winning percentage, trailing only the Oklahoma City Thunder’s .933 mark.
And they did it again without Cade Cunningham, who missed his third straight game.
Detroit didn’t just win — they controlled the night from start to finish, leaning on physical dominance inside and balanced scoring across the board.
Jalen Duren Delivers a Statement Night
Jalen Duren was nearly perfect. He shot a ridiculous 12-for-13 (92.3%), finishing with:
- 31 points
- 15 rebounds (5 offensive)
- 3 assists
- 63.6% at the line
- +20 on the floor
He bullied Indiana in the paint, finishing everything inside and controlling the boards like a veteran star. This was one of the most complete performances of his young career.
Daniss Jenkins Keeps Breaking Out
With Cunningham still out, Jenkins continues to rise. He played with poise and pace, putting up:
- 26 points
- 8 assists
- 2 rebounds
- 1 steal
- 11-for-21 shooting
- +23 on the night
He’s gone from “temporary fill-in” to “legitimate engine” during this stretch.
Robinson, Green, and Stewart Provide the Support
Duncan Robinson:
- 13 points, 4 assists, 2 steals
- Hit 3 threes and spaced the floor all game
Javonte Green:
- 20 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals
- Gave Detroit steady offense and high activity on both ends
Isaiah Stewart:
- 10 points, 2 rebounds, 5 blocks
- Brought the defensive tone early and often
Ronald Holland II Shows Two-Way Impact
Holland chipped in 7 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks, and a steal — exactly the kind of glue work that wins games during a long season.
Where Detroit Stands Now
The Pistons have put the league on notice:
- 12–2 record
- 10 straight wins
- 2nd-best mark in the NBA
- Doing it without their franchise point guard
This group is showing depth, toughness, and maturity far beyond expectations. If this level holds when Cunningham returns, the Pistons are headed toward a season that isn’t just “ahead of schedule” — it’s shaping up as a legitimate Eastern Conference contender.
