Detroit Pistons vs Minnesota Timberwolves prediction, TV channel, injury report and more with Cade Cunningham and Anthony Edwards ruled out.

MINNEAPOLIS − The Detroit Pistons used a dominant performance from Jalen Duren to blow out the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday , 129-108. They are now on a two-game road trip, starting with the Western Conference 5-seed Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday, March 28, at Target Center. The Pistons' magic number to clinch the 1-seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs is five over the second-place Boston Celtics.

The Timberwolves catch the Pistons without Cade Cunningham, who suffered a collapsed lung injury and will miss his sixth straight game. The Pistons are 4-1 without him. Daniss Jenkins, the former two-way player , will again start at point guard.

Pistons All-Star center Jalen Duren has been dominant in 19 games since returning from a two-game suspension, averaging 23. 7 points on 66. 5% shooting with 11 rebounds.

But Duren could be absent for Saturday's game, as he's questionable due to right knee injury management. Ausar Thompson (right ankle injury management), Tobias Harris (left hip soreness) and Duncan Robinson (right hip strain) also are all questionable. Marcus Sasser (right hip strain) and Caris LeVert (right knee tendinopathy) are both probable.
