But ahead of the pivotal Wednesday game, the Pistons will not see the service of Duncan Robinson.
From being initially listed as questionable to play, Robinson (lower-back soreness) has been officially ruled out for Game 5.
This serves as a huge development for Detroit, considering that the veteran sharpshooter has been elite all series against the Cavs.
In four games, Robinson averaged 13.8 points, 1.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 0.3 blocks and 2.5 steals while shooting 57.7 percent from deep across 32.5 minutes.
Daniss Jenkins should see more playing time in the wake of Duncan Robinson's absence.
Caris LeVert (heel) and Kevin Huerter (adductor), who were made available to play upon being listed as questionable, will also draw more exposure.
