Detroit Pistons dominate Indiana Pacers as Jalen Duren explodes for 31 points and 15 rebounds—could he be on track for All-Star status and a max extension? Ku Khahil dissects Duren’s video game-like efficiency, defensive impact, and the sizzling five-game run that's propelled Detroit to 10 straight wins. The emergence of Daniss Jenkins, an undrafted two-way player averaging nearly 22 points and 8 assists over his last four games, sparks questions about roster decisions and the sustainability of his “Linsanity”-style tear.

 

Key topics include Javonte Green's energetic two-way play, the Pistons’ defensive identity, and the impact of injuries on their improbable streak. Ku previews the upcoming clash with the surging Atlanta Hawks—will Cade Cunningham and Ausar Thompson’s return help Detroit reach 11 straight wins against a top Eastern Conference rival? Find out what sets this Pistons squad apart and what challenges lie ahead in maintaining their momentum.
