The Detroit Pistons take on the Phoenix Suns next in the NBA for the first time this season. Both teams are looking to bounce back after recent defeats ended their three-game winning streaks. Let's discuss the best bet in our match prediction below.
The Pistons remain 1st-seed in the Eastern Conference and have a chance to solidify their spot at the top with two games in hand. After losing three of their last four games, Detroit bounced back with three straight wins against the Cavs, Bulls, and second-placed Knicks.
However, a trip from the Clippers ended that run in one of their lowest-scoring games this season. Detroit hosts the Suns next, and while they're the overwhelming favourites, Phoenix has been incredible since the end of last month. The Suns have now won nine of their last 12 games.
They too won three straight games against the Grizzlies, Knicks, and Wizards, with the run only ending against the Heat on the road. With about half the season already played, the 7th-placed Suns cannot afford to slip up as they look to secure a playoff spot in the West. The question now is, can Phoenix upset the Pistons on the road? See key stats below.
