Detroit Pistons injury report for Game 6 against the New York Knicks (May 1, 2025)
Game 5 was a nail-biter from start to finish. The first half saw both teams locked in a defensive battle, with the Knicks and Pistons trading blows in near-identical quarters (23-22 and 22-22). The Pistons broke through in the third quarter, building their first meaningful lead—though it stayed in single digits. A tense fourth quarter ended 29-29, but Detroit's earlier surge proved enough to seal the win.
The Knicks had multiple chances to close out the series but faltered in clutch moments, much to the dismay of their home crowd. Now, the pressure shifts to Game 6 in Detroit, where the Pistons will fight to keep their season alive.

Pistons vs Knicks injury report: Key updates for Game 6
Detroit Pistons injuries
The Detroit Pistons continue to miss two critical pieces:
1. Isaiah Stewart (Center)
- Status: Out for Game 6
- Details: Isaiah Stewart has missed the entire playoff series with no clear timeline for return. His absence has left a gap in Detroit's interior defense and rebounding.
2. Jaden Ivey (Point Guard)
- Status: Out indefinitely
- Details: Ivey remains in rehabilitation after suffering a serious lower leg injury. His playmaking and scoring are sorely missed in the backcourt.
New York Knicks injuries
The Knicks enter Game 6 with a clean bill of health. Their deep bench and rotational flexibility have been major advantages in the series, allowing them to manage fatigue effectively. Role players have stepped up consistently, which could prove vital as starters log heavy minutes.
What to expect in Pistons vs Knicks Game 6
With Isaiah Stewart still sidelined, the Pistons will rely heavily on their remaining starters and bench contributors to match the Knicks' depth. Detroit's third-quarter execution in Game 5—a rare bright spot—will need to repeat itself. Meanwhile, the Knicks must rediscover their closing ability to avoid a winner-take-all Game 7.

Tension boils over as Yankees and Red Sox collide in series finale at Yankee Stadium
Tonight's finale between the two American League East rivals is set up to be explosive as the two teams duke it out for the final game in the weekend series at Yankee Stadium. The Red Sox split the first two at New York (in an incredibly strange fashion, including a French fries delay), and now the two sides square off again at 7:10 pm ET with plenty of defining moments on the line for both clubs. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Coming off a 10–7 loss, the Yankees hope to get back into the win column with ace Carlos Rodón on the mound, while Boston turns to rookie Hunter Dobbins, hoping to win the series. New York Yankees' pitching struggles open door for Boston The Red Sox came out spitting fire against Yankees starter Ryan Yarbrough on Saturday, torching him for eight runs over four innings—Yarbs' worst start of the season—as Boston turned an early 3–1 deficit into an 8–3 lead. To complicate matters, New York's patchwork infield without Anthony Volpe and Jazz Chisholm Jr. made defensive mistakes, which exacerbated the damage in a key third inning. Yarbrough, who tried valiantly to weather some storms in the Bronx, didn't have his best stuff, but without his regulars, the Yankees did him no favors. After getting off to a bumpy beginning, a three‑run blast from Austin Wells and a timely two‑RBI single by DJ LeMahieu in the eighth helped New York rally. However, the comeback was stymied when reliever Ian Hamilton allowed a couple of insurance runs in the ninth, giving Boston the 10–7 win. Trevor Story's big bat, rookie depth lift Red Sox Trevor Story drove in a career-high five runs, including a three-RBI double in the third and a two-run single in the ninth to rally Boston. Romy Gonzalez added his first HR of the season and came one hit shy of the cycle. Garrett Crochet, meanwhile, managed six innings after that for Boston's bullpen, which patched together the late‑game jitters and slammed the door shut. Also Read: Alex Cora's bench also came up huge: rookie Kristian Campbell delivered a pair of RBI singles, and veteran relievers Greg Weissert, Justin Wilson, and closer Aroldis Chapman effectively snuffed out New York's swansong. The win ties up the series at one game apiece heading into tonight's rubber match.
