The Detroit Pistons are set for a do-or-die Game 7 showdown against the Cleveland Cavaliers this Sunday at Little Caesars Arena, and the tip-off time hinges on Friday night's Western Conference action.

After a dominant 115-94 victory in Game 6, the Pistons forced a decisive seventh game in this Eastern Conference semifinal series. Fans should circle either 5 p.m. or 8 p.m. ET on their calendars, as the exact start time depends on the outcome of Friday's late game between the San Antonio Spurs and Minnesota Timberwolves.

If the Timberwolves win, expect a 5:30 p.m. tip-off in Detroit. Either way, it's a winner-take-all battle at LCA, and the energy will be electric as the Pistons look to advance. Make sure your game-day gear is ready—this is the kind of playoff moment that defines a season.
