Pistons drop 113-85 decision to Cavaliers on eve of trade deadline

CLEVELAND — It was the eve of the NBA trade deadline and the Pistons were in Cleveland to face the Cavaliers for the third time this season.

Every Pistons player outside of Cade Cunningham and Marvin Bagley was available for Wednesday's game, even the team’s two-way players.

After the first quarter, it appeared as if Detroit was headed towards another blowout loss but an exerted effort allowed Detroit to come within four points after trailing by as many as 18 in the first half. Cleveland allowed Detroit to hang around until the fourth quarter when it ripped off nine straight points to stretch its lead back to 17, ending any hopes of a comeback.
