Detroit Pistons Reveal Injury Report for Road Clash with 76ers
The Detroit Pistons enter Saturday’s road game one victory from clinching the Eastern Conference’s top seed. Detroit beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 113-108 in their most recent game. The matchup at Xfinity Mobile Arena starts at 7:00 p.m. ET and airs on NBA TV.
Context and milestones
The Pistons chase their first No. 1 seed since 2006-07. They also pursue a 60-win season for the first time since 2005-06. Detroit has already beaten Philadelphia three times this year and can complete the regular-season sweep.
Injury updates
Detroit Pistons’ injury report ahead of the road clash with the 76ers shows several roster questions. The list could shape rotations and minutes for both teams.
Pistons availability
- Cade Cunningham: out for a 10th straight game.
- Isaiah Stewart: sidelined with a calf injury. He last played March 13 in a 126-110 win over Memphis.
- Marcus Sasser: listed as a game-time decision with a hip issue.
- Tobias Harris: game-time decision after a knee injury. He exited the Thursday win in the first quarter, playing six minutes.
- Jalen Duren: listed as a game-time decision due to illness. He posted 22 points, 14 rebounds, and four assists in the win over Minnesota.
76ers availability
- Joel Embiid: out with a knee injury. He has played 37 games this season.
- Johnii Broome: out with a knee injury.
- Paul George: a game-time decision with a knee issue. He led Philadelphia with 23 points, six rebounds, and six assists in the recent win over Minnesota.
Playoff implications
The 76ers hold a 43-34 record. They currently own the tiebreaker over the Toronto Raptors for the No. 6 seed.
A win in Detroit would move Philadelphia closer to clinching a playoff berth and avoiding the play-in tournament. For the Pistons, victory would secure the East’s top seed and cap a strong regular season.
