Detroit Pistons

Golden State Warriors

Detroit is currently 11th in points, second in points allowed, and second in point differential. Cunningham leads the team in points per game and assists per game. The Pistons are 15-7 on the road and 7-3 in their last 10 games. This will be the second night of back-to-backs for Detroit, and they will look for more consistency on offense. The Pistons enter this game with the league's top-ranked defense in blocks and steals. Detroit hasn't lost two games in a row in a month and lately have had a few low-scoring defensive wins.

Golden State is currently 13th in points, 10th in points allowed, and 10th in point differential. Curry leads the team in points per game. The Warriors are 17-7 at home and 6-4 in their last 10 games. Golden State is still slowly recovering from the Butler season-ending ACL injury and, so far, they have gone 2-3. With the trade deadline coming up next week, the team finally had a solid shooting effort from everyone in the Jazz game, so the players can show their value of staying or being traded. This next stretch of games will be against some of the best teams in the East and West, and the Dubs' depth will be tested.

Best Bet: Under

The Warriors will have an extra day off going for them and will look to keep the 3-point efficiency high again. The Pistons have one of the best defenses in the league and will try to keep the offense going for the full 48 minutes. Points off turnovers will be the key to victory.
