Cavaliers Edge Pistons with Garland's Buzzer-Beater, Prepare for Wizards

Darius Garland's clutch three-pointer secures Cleveland's win after late-game drama, while Jarrett Allen's ejection highlights a heated matchup.

  • Darius Garland hit a game-winning three-pointer at the buzzer to lift the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 118-115 victory over the Detroit Pistons, extending their dominance over Detroit to 12 straight wins.
  • Jarrett Allen was ejected in the final minute after a hard screen on Detroit's Ausar Thompson, sparking a brief confrontation between players from both teams.
  • Evan Mobley delivered a standout performance with 30 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists, compensating for the absence of Donovan Mitchell, who sat out due to a shoulder contusion.
  • Cade Cunningham led the Pistons' late comeback with 38 points, including 21 in the fourth quarter, but his efforts were ultimately overshadowed by Garland's heroics.
  • The Cavaliers, who are atop the Eastern Conference, will face the Washington Wizards next, a team that has recently shown improvement with three consecutive wins and a key trade acquisition of Khris Middleton.
