The Detroit Pistons could be without three rotation players when they host the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 5 on Wednesday night.
The club’s latest injury report tags guard Duncan Robinson (low back soreness), swingman Caris LeVert (right heel contusion) and guard Kevin Huerter (left adductor strain) as questionable. The best-of-seven first-round series is tied 2-2.
Key injuries
Robinson’s status draws the most attention after the sharpshooter was limited to four points on just two shot attempts in 29 minutes during Monday’s Game 4. Over the opening three contests he averaged 17.0 points and hit 14 three-pointers.
LeVert carries the same designation he had before Game 4, when he shook off the heel issue to lead Detroit with 24 points in 31 minutes.
Huerter has missed seven consecutive postseason games. The guard last appeared early in the Orlando series and was initially viewed as a possibility for Game 4 before being ruled out.
Game 5 will be played at Little Caesars Arena, where availability could prove decisive with the series now down to a best-of-three.
