Pistons Eye 60 Wins in 20 Years vs. Pacers' Tough Season

The Detroit Pistons are aiming to achieve their first 60-win regular season in two decades when they visit the Indiana Pacers on Sunday. Having already secured the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference, Detroit guarantees home-court advantage for the playoffs. This potential 60-win campaign would be the franchise's third, following the 1988-89 and 2005-06 teams.

Key players like Cade Cunningham and Isaiah Stewart have recently returned to the Pistons' lineup from injuries, bolstering the team's depth. Cunningham, despite a minutes restriction, has shown efficiency in his return. The Pistons are looking to translate their regular-season success into a deep playoff run and end a 21-year NBA Finals drought.
