Detroit heads west on Friday to take on Phoenix in this inter-conference NBA clash. The Pistons are top of the Eastern Conference standings at 34–11 on the season, while Phoenix is seventh in the West at 28–19. Check out our prediction for the game below.
After back-to-back defeats to the Atlanta Hawks and Miami Heat, the Phoenix Suns returned to winning ways against the Brooklyn Nets in their last outing on Wednesday. Michael Porter’s game-high 36 points couldn't save the Nets from defeat as the Suns held firm to secure a narrow 106–102 victory.
However, Jordan Ott’s side are set for a difficult game on Friday. They fell 108–105 to the Detroit Pistons earlier this month and have lost three of their last four meetings against the Michigan-based outfit.
The Detroit Pistons continued their winning ways, seeing off the Denver Nuggets in a bruising battle at Ball Arena on Wednesday. They shot 47% overall and 19% from beyond the arc, scraping past the Nuggets 109–107.
Notably, Wednesday’s victory marked a sixth win in seven games for the Eastern Conference leaders. They have also secured victories in their last four road games.
