Knicks Lose Crucial Game to Pistons, Miss No. 3 Seed

In a crucial matchup on April 10, the New York Knicks fell to the Detroit Pistons 115-106, jeopardizing their chances of securing the No. 3 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Knicks struggled with turnovers, committing 14, and were missing key players OG Anunoby, Josh Hart, and Mitchell Robinson. Despite the loss, Precious Achiuwa showcased his potential with 18 points and 10 rebounds, providing a glimmer of hope for the Knicks' playoff prospects. The Pistons, who clinched the No. 6 seed, are eager for their first playoff victory since 2008, led by rising star Cade Cunningham. The Knicks now face a critical game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, where a win is essential to maintain their playoff position. With only two games remaining in the season, the pressure is mounting as they aim to avoid dropping to the fourth seed.
