What happened: The Detroit Pistons opened their playoff series against the Cleveland Cavaliers with a Game 1 win, as highlighted by @SportsCenter. Jalen Duren drew praise for his performance, and ESPN's Chiney Ogwumike singled out the Pistons for the statement victory. Detroit now leads the series 1-0.

Why it matters: Stealing Game 1 flips early series leverage and home-court math toward the Pistons, who are coming off a Game 7 win over the Magic in the prior round.

What to watch: Watch Game 2 in Cleveland for the Cavaliers' adjustment — particularly how they handle Duren in the paint after Detroit set the tone in the opener. A 2-0 series swing would put significant pressure on Cleveland heading back to Detroit.
