Javonte Green pushes shorthanded Detroit Pistons to 9th straight win, 114-105, over 76ers

The Detroit Pistons continue to demonstrate resilience, achieving their ninth straight win against the Philadelphia 76ers. Javonte Green's standout performance with 21 points highlights the depth of the Pistons' roster, especially in the absence of stars like Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren. This trend of backup players stepping up is reminiscent of recent NBA games, such as the New York Knicks' victory over the Miami Heat, where bench players also made significant contributions. As teams navigate injuries and player rotations, the ability of backups to perform under pressure is becoming increasingly crucial in the league.
