Is Cade Cunningham playing today? Detroit Pistons injuries vs Hawks

[ASFN Admin]

The Detroit Pistons knocked off of the NBA's hottest teams on Monday, March 23, defeating a Los Angeles Lakers team with Luka Dončić and LeBron James both active. Now they'll host one of the hottest teams in the East.

They will face the Atlanta Hawks, who had an 11-game winning streak snapped on Tuesday by the Houston Rockets, at Little Caesars Arena Wednesday. The recent streak has put the Hawks in control of the sixth seed, positioning them as a potential second-round foe in the playoffs.

The Hawks catch a break after Cade Cunningham suffered a collapsed lung injury last week in Washington. Daniss Jenkins, the former two-way player, will start once again at point guard. All-Star center Jalen Duren has been dominant in 17 games since returning from a two-game suspension, averaging 23.2 points on 66.5% shooting with 10.9 rebounds. The Pistons are also down standout backup Isaiah Stewart (calf).
