The Detroit Pistons are riding a wave of momentum and aim to solidify their position in the Eastern Conference's Top 6 when they face the Indiana Pacers. The Pistons are just a half-game behind the Pacers for sixth place and have won 10 of their last 12 games. The Pacers, however, may be without key players Tyrese Haliburton and Aaron Nesmith due to injuries.
Our NBA betting picks like the chances of the Pistons staying hot, especially if Pacers All-Star Tyrese Haliburton is out or limited. Look for Cade Cunningham to take command for Detroit.The surging Detroit Pistons look to overtake the Indiana Pacers and jump into the East’s Top 6 when they meet on Thursday.
The Pacers were rolling as well, winning six straight, none more convincing than the 108-93 whipping they put on the East-leading Cavaliers. However, the good times came to an end last game, as Cleveland got its revenge in the rematch. The Pacers may also be without wing Aaron Nesmith , who also missed the last game against Cleveland. Nesmith and Haliburton are both listed as questionable.
Throw in the fact Detroit is 5-1 in its last six home games, and 6-2-0 straight-up as a home favorite on the year, and I have the Pistons staying hot.Cunningham lit the Knicks up for 32 last game, the fourth time in his last six he’s put up 30+. He’s had to lift his scoring of late as wing Jaden Ivey, the team’s second leading scorer, is out indefinitely with a broken leg.
