Cade Cunningham and the Detroit Pistons host the Cleveland Cavaliers with 1-0 series lead on Thursday. Both teams battled it out with the Pistons pulling ahead in the series with a 111-101 win on Tuesday.

The Cavs look to tie the series before they head back to Cleveland. However, it's a tough task considering the Pistons have gone 12-4 against division opponents. This will be a critical game early for both teams. Cleveland is 11-5 in division matchups and scores 119.5 points per game.

What might be a huge factor for the Cavs is containing the Pistons beyond the arc. Detroit averages 11 made 3-pointers per game this season, but is also three less than the Cavs have allowed. But this might come down to who has the final possession.
