Prediction published on 4/9/24, 8:16 AM  by Tyler Doty | Modified on 4/9/24 at 10:41 AM in NBA Picks

The Sixers are hosting the Pistons at the Wells Fargo Center. Joel Embiid's injury was a real blow for Philadelphia. Without their star player, the 76ers quickly lost numerous games and continued to tumble down the Eastern Conference standings. The fight for a playoff spot has become intense and uncertain for Nick Nurse's men. However, with Embiid's return after a two-month absence, the team has found new momentum with 5 straight wins. His talent and impact on the game are undeniable, and his presence on the court is crucial for the 76ers. His return offers new perspectives for the team and strengthens their chances of qualifying for the playoffs.

The current season is truly nightmarish for the Pistons. With a record of 13 wins to 65 losses, including 12 defeats in the last 13 games, Detroit is currently the worst team in the league. The team's unstable performances on the court, the lack of cohesion, and difficulties in finding an effective playing rhythm are all factors contributing to this slide. The situation is alarming for the Pistons, who find themselves at the bottom of the NBA standings, experiencing a truly disastrous season, mirroring the previous one.
