It’s been a good week for Detroit basketball.
The Pistons, for the first time in 19 years, have sewn up the Eastern Conference’s No. 1 seed in the NBA playoffs. The University of Michigan won its first men’s basketball national championship since 1989.

On top of that, there’s great news about the status of Pistons star Cade Cunningham.
After missing time after suffering a collapsed lung, Cunningham is expected to make his return Wednesday night against the Milwaukee Bucks, according to ESPN’s Vincent Goodwill.
Cunningham missed the previous 11 games. He was last active during a March 17 game against the Washington Wizards. Detroit won that game, 130-117, but Cunningham left with his injury after about five minutes of playing time.
The Pistons went 8-3 without Cunningham. Overall, the team has a 13-5 record and has averaged 114.8 points per game without its MVP candidate.
