Pistons beat Magic 98-83 in Game 2 to even series and end NBA's longest home

DETROIT (AP) --- Cade Cunningham had 27 points, 11 assists and six rebounds to
lead the top-seeded Detroit Pistons to a 98-83 win over the eighth-seeded
Orlando Magic on Wednesday night, evening their first-round series and ending
the longest home losing streak in NBA playoff history.
The Pistons had lost 11 straight home postseason games, a drought that started
in 2008.
Game 3 is Saturday in Orlando.
Detroit dominated the third quarter, turning a tie game into a rout by
outscoring the Magic 38-16 in the period with six players scoring at least five
points.
After Cunningham scored a career playoff-high 39 points in Game 1 and didn't
get much help, the All-Star guard had plenty of support, with five teammates
scoring in double figures.
Jalen Suggs scored 19 points and Paolo Banchero had 18 for the Magic. They
combined to miss 14 of 25 shots as the team shot 33% and was held to a season
low in points.
