Follow tonight's action with live updates, top plays, observations and stats from around the NBA, including the Pistons' quest for seven straight wins.

The Detroit Pistons and Philadelphia 76ers are squaring off yet again for the second time in less than a week. Detroit muscled its way to victory in the first matchup behind a suffocating defensive team effort.

“We all nasty dawgs, nasty boys, whatever you want to call it, that’s us.” two-way guard Daniss Jenkins said Friday after Detroit’s ninth straight win. “A bunch of mutts. You don’t want no mutt in your house, do you? Nobody likes mutts.”

Stephen Curry notched his 44th game of 40+ points since his 30th birthday. The 37-year-old is now tied with Michael Jordan for the most in NBA history after turning 30. Wednesday and Friday’s performances represent his first back-to-back 40-point games since 2022.
