On a bad day for Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green, the shooting inside Toyota Center was nearly as frigid as Houston’s snowy weather outside.

Before Monday’s matchup began, Cade Cunningham stressed the importance of this game for the Detroit Pistons. He called for a rare, emergency, last-minute team meeting at the free-throw line near Detroit’s bench roughly 10 minutes before tipoff.

Cade Cunningham has helped lead the Detroit Pistons to a 22-21 record, an 18-win improvement from this time last year.
