Wednesday night at Little Caesars Arena, the Detroit Pistons will take on the visiting Charlotte Hornets. It will be a battle of two 3-1 teams—one who was expected to have success early and the other one that is surprisingly playing well.

Detroit is 3-1 on the season and are coming off their 1st loss just last night. Paul Reed was surprisingly their top scorer with 22 points and 9 boards. Cade Cunningham dropped 19 points and also 9 boards along with 8 assists in the loss. They could not contain the duo of Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson of the Knicks. They combined for 50 of the team’s 111 points. Despite being 2nd in the league in rebounds per game, they were outrebounded in the loss to the Knicks.

Charlotte is also 3-1 at this point. It is a bit shocking after LeMelo Ball was sent to Minnesota for Naz Reid. Things have been working out for them in the trade so far. Brandon Miller has stepped up his game and is averaging a team-high 24.3 points per game. The Hornets are coming off a 110-103 win, in which Miller scored a season-high 39 points. Newly acquired Naz Reid added 18 points and 12 boards.

Our Detroit Pistons vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction

The Pistons are coming off that 1st loss of the season just last night in New York. They had to go right from that loss back to Detroit and playing on no rest. We believe that will play into them coming off to a slow start offensively. They are still decent favorites here and if they are going to win and/or cover the spread, they are going to do so on defense.
