Posted : 04 May 2026

The Detroit Pistons produced a stunning comeback in the NBA play-offs, overturning a 3-1 series deficit to defeat the Orlando Magic and secure a place in the Eastern Conference semi-finals. The Pistons closed out the series with a dominant 116-94 victory, marking their first play-off series win since 2008.

Their comeback places them among rare company in NBA history, becoming only the 15th team to recover from a 3-1 deficit, and the second to do so in just two days. The decisive win came on home court, capping a dramatic turnaround in the best-of-seven series.

Cade Cunningham led the charge for Detroit with 32 points and 12 assists, while Tobias Harris added 30 points to secure the emphatic win. Cunningham praised the team’s resilience, highlighting their momentum from a strong regular season and the determination to avoid an early exit.

The Pistons will now face the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference semi-finals, with the next best-of-seven series set to begin on 5 May. The Cavaliers advanced after defeating the Toronto Raptors 114-102 in their series-clinching game.

Jarrett Allen delivered a standout performance for Cleveland with 22 points and 19 rebounds, helping his team recover from an early deficit and take control in the second half. He emphasized effort and energy as key factors in the win.

Donovan Mitchell contributed 22 points, while James Harden added 18, as the Cavaliers pulled away in the third quarter. For Toronto, Scottie Barnes scored 24 points, and RJ Barrett added 23 in their elimination loss.
