How To Watch, Game Notes, Quick Facts, Injury Report: Detroit Pistons vs. Minnesota Timberwolves

How To Watch

As you can see, the Timberwolves are one game over .500 at 26-25 and are currently No. 7 in the Western Conference. They are led by their young, three-headed monster of D'Angelo Russell, Karl Anthony-Towns and Anthony Edwards. Those three create a lot of problems at all three levels as very versatile, talented and, in Edwards' case, hyper athletic youngsters who can each put 30 on your head.

Probable Starters

Jerami Grant remains in the starting lineup after returning from a two-month injury hiatus. His return to the floor against New Orleans was solid as he dropped 17 points and played nearly 30 minutes.

Injury Report

Cade Cunningham left the last game late in the third quarter with hip pointer but is projected to start tonight with a questionable deisgnation. Josh Jackson is also listed as questionable and has missed the last two games.

Game Notes

Hamidou Diallo is averaging 1.2 steals per game, while Cade Cunningham is getting 1.3 steals per game. That is a testament to their positioning but also to their length and activity. Diallo, especially, has been bringing a lot of hustle and energy to the floor as he filled in for Jerami Grant.

Detroit's third-place rank in bench scoring is also impressive and should actually improve with an available Kelly Olynyk and a now more experienced and confident Diallo returning the the bench.
