Pistons’ Injury Update: Cunningham, Duren, Stewart Status for 76ers Game
The Detroit Pistons are dealing with significant injury updates as they prepare for their upcoming game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Pistons are coming off a triumphant 124-113 victory over the Chicago Bulls on November 12, 2025. The team has faced some player absences but continues to showcase depth and resilience.
Pistons’ Injury Update for 76ers Game
Cade Cunningham has been upgraded to questionable for the Pistons’ match on Friday at 7:30 p.m. Cunningham previously missed the game against the Bulls due to a left hip contusion. His potential return could impact the team’s performance significantly.
Status of Other Key Players
- Jalen Duren: Also upgraded to questionable after missing several games due to a right ankle sprain.
- Isaiah Stewart: Questionable with a left ankle sprain.
- Ausar Thompson: Out with a right ankle sprain.
- Tobias Harris: Missing his seventh consecutive game due to a right ankle sprain.
- Jaden Ivey: Nearing his four-week re-evaluation following knee surgery.
- Marcus Sasser: Expected to be unavailable for at least three more weeks due to a left hip impingement.
If ruled out, Friday would mark Stewart’s fourth straight absence, while Thompson will have missed three games. Cunningham’s absence against the Bulls marked the first time he did not play this season. His impressive stats include an average of 27.5 points, 9.9 assists, and 5.4 rebounds per game.
Pistons’ Recent Performances
The Pistons have shown their depth recently, especially in their victory over the Bulls, where they extended their winning streak to eight games. This win was notable given Cunningham, Duren, and several other key players were missing.
Paul Reed led the way with a strong performance, scoring 28 points and securing 13 rebounds. Alongside him, Daniss Jenkins contributed 18 points and 12 assists, proving that the Pistons can rely on their roster despite injuries.
A win against the 76ers would not only extend the winning streak but would also mark the franchise’s longest since 2007-08, when they won ten consecutive games. The Pistons have already shown their potential by dominating the Brooklyn Nets on November 7, 2025, with a score of 125-107 in their NBA Cup group play debut.
As the Pistons look to maintain their strong start to the season, fans will await updates on the status of their star players ahead of the critical matchup against the 76ers.
