On Saturday evening, the Detroit Pistons will be in New York to face off against the Brooklyn Nets at Barclays Center.

For the game, the Pistons will be without their best player, as Cade Cunningham has been ruled out.

The former Oklahoma State star has missed each of the previous two games, so this will be his third straight out of the starting lineup.
