The Detroit Pistons travel to the Washington Wizards in their next NBA match, looking to return to winning ways. They are the top seed in the East, being 32 matches ahead of the Wizards, who sit second from bottom in the conference. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Wizards have lost 12 games in a row. They now possess two of the top five longest losing streaks this season. Brian Keefe’s men had lost 14 on the trot between October and November.
In their latest negative streak, they have lost five times at home. The Wizards, who are on the second night of a no-rest schedule, returned home last time out, where they were outlasted by the out-of-form Warriors.
They lost 125-117, with the game seeing Trae Young exit prematurely with an injury. The Wizards, who have Kyshawn George, Alex Sarr, and Anthony Davis ruled out, have been eliminated from postseason contention.
The Pistons were the first team in the East to earn a place in the postseason. They did so despite their current struggles after compiling the best record in the East.
J.B. Bickerstaff’s men have not yet cemented the top seed and look to regain their form with the playoffs fast approaching. The Pistons have won just three of their last eight matches.
After ending a rare four-game skid with a three wins run, the Pistons were halted again last time out. Starting a three-game road trip in Toronto, Detroit were outlasted 119-108 and now are just 3.5 games ahead of closest challengers.
