Pistons at Knicks final score: Detroit’s offense nonexistent in loss to NY

The Detroit Pistons wasted an explosive opening period at Madison Square Garden, dropping a 111-97 decision to the New York Knicks after a severe offensive collapse. After piling up 38 points and six blocks in the first quarter to build a double-digit edge, Detroit hit a brick wall, managing just 25 combined points across the second and third frames while falling behind by 25.

Cade Cunningham nearly notched a triple-double with 19 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists, and Paul Reed contributed a team-high 22 points alongside nine rebounds, but the visitors shot a dismal 42 percent overall and 24 percent from deep. New York capitalized behind Jalen Brunson, who overcame a 5-for-18 shooting night by drawing 16 free-throw attempts to finish with 23 points as the Knicks secured a 14-point home victory.
