In Monday's win, Cunningham dropped 32 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists, and 3 steals to lead Detroit. Following the game, Clippers star guard James Harden gave Cunningham his flowers, noting his improvement from years past.

The Detroit Pistons are now 32-26 after defeating the Atlanta Hawks and Los Angeles Clippers in back-to-back nights. Now sixth in the Eastern Conference standings, they’re firmly on the pathway to playoff contention.

The Pistons are now in a position to secure their first playoff appearance since 2018-19 and their first with Cunningham leading the charge.

The Clippers' long-term success largely depends on the health of Kawhi Leonard. While they've figured out how to win without him, it's still not a long-term solution. Unfortunately, it looks like Leonard has a brand new injury that fans have to be worried about.

The Los Angeles Clippers will be severely shorthanded as they attempt to snap a two-game skid on Monday against the Detroit Pistons. Kawhi Leonard, Norman Powell and Ben Simmons will be sidelined for the road matchup on the second night of a back-to-back.
