An intriguing matchup will take place on Sunday when the Miami Heat, who have won four straight, host the Eastern Conference-leading Detroit Pistons, who boast a 45-17 record. The betting odds for the Miami-Detroit matchup are the most evenly matched of all the 10 NBA games on Sunday.
On Saturday, the Pistons also competed, but the Nets upset them at home. They were 13.5-point favorites in the betting odds but ended up losing 105-107. They were without forward Ausar Thompson due to a sprained right ankle, and coach J.B. Bickerstaff acknowledged that Thompson is a key player for the Pistons' defense.
The Heat last played on Saturday, extending their winning streak with a 128-120 victory over the Hornets at the Spectrum Center. The Heat snapped the Hornets' six-game winning streak. Tyler Herro scored 35 points and made 8 of 10 three-point attempts.

Our Miami Heat vs Detroit Pistons Prediction
The Pistons and Heat have already played each other twice this season, splitting the wins, with the home team winning both games. They faced off in early January at the Kaseya Center, where Miami defeated the Pistons 118-112.
While Miami will be without Powell due to a groin injury, Cade Cunningham, the Pistons' driving force, did not play on Saturday due to a quadriceps issue. The Pistons have rarely lost three games in a row, and in their last two road games against the Spurs and Cavs, they lost without scoring 110 points.
Our prediction for Heat vs Pistons is: Heat ML.
