The Detroit Pistons fell to the Charlotte Hornets in a thrilling overtime battle at Spectrum Center. Cade Cunningham did not play in overtime due to a hip injury he suffered late in the fourth quarter. Lamelo Ball fouled out early in overtime. Despite a strong effort by the Pistons, who out-rebounded the Hornets 55 to 42, Detroit fell short, losing 123-121. Cade Cunningham led the Pistons with a double-double, scoring 27 points while dishing out 10 assists, and Tobias Harris added 26 points, including clutch three-pointers that kept Detroit in contention. Isaiah Stewart contributed with 13 points and 9 rebounds. However, it was Charlotte's Brandon Miller who stole the show, pouring in 38 points, including critical buckets in overtime, while LaMelo Ball orchestrated the offense with 35 points and 9 assists. The Pistons now aim to bounce back from this narrow defeat as they continue their road trip.
