He's got 37 to go with LaVine's 38!
Sacramento, which is coming off a 120-113 over the East no. 1 Cleveland Cavaliers, improved to 39-40 to remain in ninth place and in prime position to secure home-court in the West play-in. They are now one game ahead of 10th-ranked Dallas Mavericks (38-41).
Meanwhile, Cade Cunningham took the scoring cudgels with 35 points for the Pistons (43-36) in their fourth loss in the last five games.
Sacramento hosts Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets next (47-32), while Detroit faces the New York Knicks (50-28) in a potential East opening-round playoff preview.
