With a 21-point performance from Duren, the Pistons defeated the Bucks 137-111, securing their 58th win of the season. This victory solidifies their Eastern Conference title, and as they prepare for the playoffs, they are refining their basketball skills in the remaining regular season games to ensure they are ready for the most crucial moments. On Friday, the Pistons will face the Hornets.
Detroit has defeated Charlotte in their last four meetings; the most recent was on February 9th in a 110-104 game marred by a brawl that resulted in four players' being suspended. Despite this, the Hornets have strong reasons to win in the final stages of the regular season, as they could potentially avoid the play-in tournament. However, it will be difficult, as they would have to overcome the Raptors, Sixers, and Magic.
The Hornets lost to the Celtics 102-113, ending their four-game winning streak. They led by 11 points at halftime but trailed by the end of the third quarter and scored only 15 in the fourth. Despite this, LaMelo Ball had his second consecutive game, scoring over 30 points.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Detroit Pistons Prediction
The Pistons' defense held them to 111 points in three of their last four games. This gives Detroit a defensive rating of 110.7, making them the second-best defense in the NBA.
Even so, the Pistons will have some limitations on offense, such as Cunningham only recently recovering from the collapsed lung that sidelined him. The Detroit star returned with a double-double, but J.B. Bickerstaff has already indicated that he likely won't play or will play with limited minutes against the Hornets on Friday.
Our prediction for Hornets vs Pistons is: Under 223.5.
