Magic Upset Top-Seeded Pistons
Detroit's loss extends the longest home playoff losing streak in NBA history, a drought that dates back to 2008.
The Pistons, who entered the postseason with championship aspirations, appeared rusty and were unable to contain Orlando's balanced attack.
Cade Cunningham's 39-point performance for Detroit was not enough to overcome the Magic's defensive intensity.
Game 2 is scheduled for Wednesday night, with the Pistons facing significant pressure to even the series before heading to Orlando.
