DETROIT
- The
Orlando
Magic
pulled
off a
road win
against
the
Detroit
Pistons
with a
final
score of
112-109,
with
Desmond
Bane
leading
the way
with 37
points.
Despite
a
stellar
performance
from
Cade
Cunningham—39
points,
13
rebounds,
and 11
assists—the
Pistons
couldn't
secure
the
victory.
In a
tightly
contested
matchup,
the
Magic's
offensive
firepower
proved
to be
the
difference.
Bane's
dominant
scoring
display
carried
Orlando
through
a
defensive
battle,
while
the
Pistons'
star
point
guard
had an
all-around
strong
game
that
came
just
short of
leading
Detroit
to
victory
at home.
The loss
was
notable
given
the
context
of the
season—this
was an
NBA Cup
group
play
game
with
significant
playoff
implications,
and both
teams
were
vying
for
advancement
in the
tournament.
The
Magic's
ability
to win
on the
road
highlights
their
recent
resurgence
this
season.
