The Detroit Pistons defeated the Orlando Magic 93–79 on May 1 at Kia Center, controlling the matchup with superior efficiency and a dominant fourth quarter. Cade Cunningham led Detroit with 32 points, while teammate Tobias Harris added 22 points as the Pistons shot 40 percent from the field and made 9 three-pointers. Orlando countered with Paolo Banchero and Desmond Bane each scoring 17 points, but the Magic managed only 34.6 percent shooting and finished with just 9 threes on 38 total rebounds. Detroit's rebounding advantage proved decisive—the Pistons grabbed 52 boards compared to Orlando's 38—and the fourth quarter sealed the result, with Detroit outscoring the Magic 31–8 in that period. The final margin of 14 points fell well short of the Vegas total of 210.5, a low-scoring affair driven by Detroit's defensive rating of 88.5 versus Orlando's 106.4. The Pistons' balanced attack and late-game execution demonstrate growing roster cohesion heading into the final playoff stretch.
