The Detroit Pistons, first in the East, visit the Boston Celtics, third in the East, in a game streamed nationally on Peacock. Here's our prediction.

Thanks to Brown's big half, the Celtics took a 57-53 lead into halftime, but they fell behind late and couldn't catch the Pistons.

Cade Cunningham scored 32 points and hit a season-high six 3-pointers to lead the Pistons, who improved to 21-5. The Celtics, who handed Detroit one of its five losses on Nov. 26, dropped their second straight game to fall to 15-11.

The Boston Celtics may be without one of their key players in Monday night's game against the Detroit Pistons.
