Jalen Duren totaled 15 points (5-of-9 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), 15 rebounds, three assists and one steal in the win over the Magic on Sunday.

Duren recorded his first double-double of the season on Sunday to help the Pistons win three straight games and complete the series comeback to advance to the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Sunday’s win marked the first-time All-Star’s highest scoring total of the series, and was also the first time he collected double-digit rebounds. He’ll look to have a much more consistent second round, but his performance in Game 7 should provide him with the necessary momentum to start off the next series productively.
Cade Cunningham

DET Guard #2

Cade Cunningham added 32 points (10-of-18 FGs, 3-of-10 FTs), one rebound, 12 assists, two blocks and four three-pointers in the win over the Magic on Sunday.

Cunningham was sensational, once again, on Sunday. He logged a second consecutive 32-point outing, this time adding a series-best 12 assists to help the Pistons reel off three straight wins to save their season. The former first-overall pick averaged 36.3 points in the three elimination games and scored at least 30 points in more than half of the seven games. Cunningham’s versatility undoubtedly is the driving force of this Pistons offense — Detroit will count on him to lead the way offensively in the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Tobias Harris

DET Forward #12

Tobias Harris added 30 points (11-of-18 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, three steals, one block and five three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Magic.

Harris spent much of the series punishing his former employer. His series-high 30-point outing on Sunday put the finishing touches on a seven-game showing in which he averaged a strong 21.6 points and 8.1 rebounds. He led Detroit in three-pointers in Game 7 and tied a team high with four stocks. The veteran forward often functioned as the Pistons’ second-best performer throughout the series. He’ll be counted on in the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Kevin Huerter

DET Guard-Forward #27

Kevin Huerter (adductor) is out for Sunday’s Game 7 against the Magic.

Sunday’s series decider will be the third game that Huerter has missed due to a strained left adductor. Given what’s on the line, the Pistons will continue to lean heavily on Cade Cunningham, who has played 44 and 42 minutes in the two games that Huerter has missed.
Kevin Huerter

DET Guard-Forward #27

Kevin Huerter (adductor) is questionable for Sunday’s Game 7 against the Magic.

Huerter has missed the last two games with a strained left adductor. The Pistons have leaned on Cade Cunningham, who saw his highest minute totals of the series in the last two games, without Huerter. That figures to be the case once again in Game 7 on Sunday.
Duncan Robinson

DET Forward #55

Duncan Robinson recorded 14 points (5-of-11 FGs), five rebounds, three assists and four three-pointers in Friday’s Game 6 win over the Magic.

Having hit three three-pointers in four of the first five games of this series, Robinson was a bit more productive in Game 6. The Pistons’ wing established new series-highs in points and three-pointers, sprinkling in some rebounds and assists for good measure. One would assume that Orlando will shoot the ball better on Sunday than they did in the second half of Game 6, as they totaled 19 points. As a result, the Pistons will need Robinson to come through with a performance similar to the one he produced on Friday.
Tobias Harris

DET Forward #12

Tobias Harris accounted for 22 points (7-of-20 FGs, 6-of-9 FTs), 10 rebounds and two three-pointers in Friday’s Game 6 win over the Magic.

Harris may have shot just 35 percent from the field in Game 6, but he has been a consistent offensive presence alongside Cade Cunningham in this series. Despite spraining his left ankle during Game 5, the veteran forward logged 38 minutes on Friday, and he’s scored at least 20 points in each of the last four games. Harris’ double-double was his second of the series, and the Pistons will need a similar effort in Game 7, especially if Jalen Duren (8/9/1) continues to struggle.
Cade Cunningham

DET Guard #2

Cade Cunningham finished Friday’s Game 6 win over the Magic with 32 points (10-of-23 FGs, 10-of-12 FTs), 10 rebounds, three assists, four steals, one block and two three-pointers.

Despite trailing by as much as 24, Cunningham and the Pistons rallied to force a decisive Game 7 on Sunday. And as one would expect, the Pistons’ point guard was at his best when his team needed him most. Cunningham scored 19 points in the fourth quarter, which equaled Orlando’s tally for the entire second half. Over the last two games, both Pistons victories, Cunningham has totaled 77 points. Given the offensive challenges that Detroit faces, they’ll need another elite effort from their star on Sunday.
Kevin Huerter

DET Guard-Forward #27

Kevin Huerter (adductor) is out for Friday’s Game 6 against the Magic.

Huerter will miss a second consecutive game as he deals with a strained left adductor. His continued absence means that the Pistons will lean even more on Cade Cunningham, who logged 44 minutes in Game 5. Daniss Jenkins’ playing time only increased slightly on Wednesday, as the Pistons managed to stave off elimination.
Tobias Harris

DET Forward #12

Tobias Harris (ankle) is available for Friday’s Game 6 against the Magic.

Initially questionable after spraining his left ankle during the Pistons’ Game 5 victory on Wednesday, Harris is good to go. He’ll take on his usual role within the starting lineup and has been one of the Pistons’ most consistent players in this series. Detroit will need a similar effort from Harris if they’re to force a decisive Game 7 on Sunday.
