Pistons List Duncan Robinson, Kevin Huerter and Caris LeVert as Questionable for Game 5 vs. Cavs

Injuries to key shooters could squeeze Detroit’s spacing and rotation options.

Overview

  • Game 5, which tips at 8 p.m. ET Wednesday, comes after Cleveland won Games 3 and 4 to even the Eastern semifinal at 2-2.
  • Duncan Robinson is questionable with low back soreness, and he participated in the Pistons’ morning shootaround without a formal clearance to play.
  • Kevin Huerter is questionable with a left adductor strain and has not appeared since the first-round series against Orlando in late April.
  • Caris LeVert is listed as questionable with a right heel contusion after scoring 24 points off the bench in Game 4.
  • Detroit could lose two primary floor spacers in Robinson and Huerter, which would make it harder to draw Cavaliers defenders to the arc and could force deeper bench minutes.
