The Detroit Pistons ( 28 - 29 ) defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers ( 40 - 15 ) 96 - 88 on Monday . It was a night of improbabilities , with the Pistons coming into the contest looking to snap a five - game losing streak at Quicken Loans Arena of all places , where Cleveland had only dropped four games all season . Detroit was also coming off an absolute trampling at the hands of Anthony Davis on Sunday , who generated a historic 59 - point , 20 - rebound performance . However , the Pistons accomplished the highly unlikely feat Monday on the strength of suffocating defense against one of the game 's best players , and a highly balanced offensive effort from their starting five . Detroit frustrated LeBron James with their typically stelllar play against small forwards , holding him to only 12 points on 5 - for - 18 shooting from the field , and forcing him into an uncharacteristic six turnovers . They also notably shut out starting center Tristan Thompson on the scoreboard , and held sharpshooter J.R. Smith to seven points . The Pistons were sperheaded by Reggie Jackson 's 23 - point outing , which he supplemented with four assists , three rebounds and three steals . Kentavious Caldwell-Pope followed with his first productive performance since returning from a groin injury , totaling 19 points , four rebounds and two steals . Andre Drummond was next with one of his trademark double - doubles , in which he collected 16 points , 15 boards , an assist , two steals and a block . Tobias Harris and Marcus Morris rounded matters out for the starting five with a pair of 14 - point outings . The former also pitched in five rebounds , three assists and three steals in his first start in a Pistons uniform , while Morris supplied four assists and a pair of rebounds in addition to his outstanding defensive work on James . Stanley Johnson paced the reserves with 10 points , four rebounds , an assist and a block . Detroit remains in fourth place in the Eastern Conference 's Central Division , and is currently two games back of the eighth - seeded Chicago Bulls . They head back home to await the Philadelphia 76ers for a Wednesday matchup . Kyrie Irving was a bright spot on the night for Cleveland , as he managed 30 points , five assists , a rebound and a pair of steals after having to exit the Cavs ' last game with an illness . Kevin Love followed with 24 points , seven rebounds and three assists . James managed to complement his modest scoring total with eight boards , five assists and three steals . The bench was led by a modest seven points from Matthew Dellavedova , who also added three assists and a rebound . Cleveland remains atop the Eastern Conference 's Central Division despite the loss , and retains the top seed in the conference as well . They 're home again on Wednesday for a tussle with the Charlotte Hornets .
