The Detroit Pistons travel to the Frost Bank Arena on Thursday to face the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA. The Spurs (44-17) are second in the Western Conference standings, while the Pistons (45-15) lead the way in the East. Let’s get into the match prediction. 

The San Antonio Spurs have been one of the hottest teams in the NBA in recent weeks, and notched up their 12th win in their last 13 games, smashing the 76ers 131-91 on Tuesday. 

While it was a fairly quiet night for Victor Wembanyama (10 points), Devin Vassell drained six threes en route to 22 points, while Dylan Harper also finished with 22. Those performances showed the Spurs’ depth and players’ willingness to prove themselves. 

This is the Spurs' first game back in San Antonio in almost a month. They are 21-6 at home and beat this opponent 114-103 in their only match this season last month. 

Meanwhile, the Detroit Pistons have also been in fine form this season, but they will be looking to get back in the win column here after losing to the Cavaliers 113-109 on Tuesday. 

Jalen Duren top-scored for the team with 24 points, followed by Tobias Harris with 19. However, Cade Cunningham had an off night, managing just 10 points, highlighting just how important he is to the team this season. 

The Pistons are 21-8 on the road and are expected to have a full roster at their disposal for this match.

The Spurs will be without Harrison Barnes, Mason Plumlee and David Jones Garcia for this match, but they are playing excellent ball and are now going for a fifth straight win at home. 

The Pistons have no injury concerns for this match, but they were beaten by 11 when they met this opponent back home a couple of weeks ago, and their record at Frost Bank Arena is far from impressive. Our San Antonio Spurs vs Detroit Pistons prediction is San Antonio Spurs -2.5.
