The Detroit Pistons are at home on Sunday night as they host the Orlando Magic in Game 1 of the first round of the NBA Playoffs.

In last Sunday's victory over the Pacers, Paul Reed led the way for the Pistons as he recorded 26 points, six rebounds and three assists while Tobias Harris added 24 points and four rebounds of his own.

Now Detroit will try to use home court to their advantage on Sunday as they try to pick up a key victory over the Magic to grab a 1-0 series lead.

On the other side, Orlando enters Sunday's contest as the No. 8 seed in the East after defeating the Charlotte Hornets at home in dominant fashion on Friday night in the Play-In Tournament.

Paolo Banchero led the way for the Magic in Friday's victory as he ended the game with 25 points, five rebounds and six assists while Franz Wagner recorded 18 points, seven rebounds and six assists.

While both teams are looking to pick up a victory in Game 1 on Sunday night, both squads may be without one of their key players due to injury.

Magic Injury Report: Will Jonathan Isaac Play?

For the Magic, they have only one player listed on their injury report as they have listed forward Jonathan Isaac as questionable.

Orlando has listed Isaac as questionable due to a left knee sprain that has kept him out of all but one game since March 5.

If Isaac remains sidelined on Sunday, Tristan da Silva and Jamal Cain could both continue to have increased roles off the bench.

Pistons Injury Report: Will Jalen Duren Play?

On the other side, the Pistons enter Sunday's game with a clean injury report as they have nobody listed on it, including star center Jalen Duren.

Of course, Duren missed the final game of the regular season due to right knee injury management but he is off the injury report and will return for Game 1 against the Magic.

Fans can catch Game 1 of the first-round series between the Magic and Pistons from Detroit on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock.
