Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics are showing signs of having another dominant season. The defending champions are second in their conference and have all their stars firing, so it was a surprise when they lost to a Memphis Grizzlies side that had not won in the ten games before their Sunday clash. With Ja Morant inspiring the Grizzlies to a 127-121 victory, Jrue Holiday led the Celtics with 22 points, and Jaylen Brown and Payton Pritchard each chipped in with 22 points. The night's story was the poor shooting from the field as the Celtics went 18 for 60 from the 3-point line. Down 14 points in the third quarter, the Celtics put up a valiant effort to close the gap but ultimately failed to close out the game.

Cade Cunningham’s triple-double helped the Detroit Pistons grab a first victory in three as they beat the New York Knicks 120-111 at the Madison Square Garden on Saturday night. Cunningham recorded 29 points, 15 assists, and 10 rebounds, Malik Beasley added 23 points for the bench, and Jaden Ivey chipped in 16 to push the Pistons past New York. In a comfortable performance from the Pistons, they led the Knicks by 17 points in the third. And even though the in-form NY Knicks pushed them to the line in the dying embers of the game, Detroit overturned a three-game skid to hand New York their first loss in four games. Cunnigham’s performance was the fifth triple-double of the season for him.
