The point guard scored 32 points, made six three-pointers and converted 11 of 21 field goals in a closely contested duel, which recorded 15 lead changes before the Pistons pulled away in the final minutes. Cunningham, who averages nearly 27 points per game this season, was the key figure in the match. With this triumph, Detroit improved its record to 21-5, adding its fourth consecutive victory, although not without resistance. Boston came to dominate by up to 12 points in the second quarter, forcing the Eastern leaders to give their all. "We love difficult and close games like this. I think those types of games motivate us even more," Cunningham said after the game. The depth of the Detroit team made a difference again, with 47 points contributed from the bench. Caris LeVert contributed 13 units in 19 minutes, while Jaden Ivey added 10 points. "We have a very complete squad, with starters in all positions and players coming off the bench who do their job like no one else in the league," added Cunningham. For the Celtics, Jaylen Brown led the offense with 34 points, followed by Derrick White, who added 31.
