Duren has recorded at least 14 points and eight rebounds in four of his last five contests. Veteran Tobias Harris has been inconsistent but is coming off a big 25-point performance in the Pistons’ previous game. Duncan Robinson is another player who has been a significant contributor, scoring 15-plus points in four straight.

- The Cavaliers will be without their starting point guard, Darius Garland, who has a sprained big toe.
