The Detroit Pistons will take on the Memphis Grizzlies tonight for the second time in four games, this time looking for a different outcome.
Detroit lost the last one by 10 in their home building and tonight will travel to Memphis to try and get one back against Ja Morant and the Grizzlies.
The Pistons are hoping they have their own Morant-type in Jaden Ivey, who shares both some positive and negative traits with the Memphis star.
Detroit has picked it up somewhat, winning four of their last 10 games behind the brilliant shooting of Bojan Bogdanovic and the career rejuvenation of Killian Hayes, who has enjoyed his best stretch as a professional since Cade Cunningham went out with injury.
The Grizzlies have won four in a row and pulled even with the Phoenix Suns in second place in the Western Conference. They’ll try to keep rolling tonight against Detroit.
Here is everything you need to know.
Detroit Pistons vs Memphis Grizzlies: Odds, Spread, Over/Under
Detroit are serious underdogs in this one, as Fanduel has the Grizzlies as 11 point favorites, one of the highest spreads of the season. The money lines are set at +400 for Detroit and -520 for Memphis and the over/under is a combined 228.5, which seems a bit high even though they did surpass this mark just a few days ago.
Both teams have been playing better defensively and the Grizzlies are on the second game of a back-to-back, so it should be a slightly lower score.
Pistons injury report: Is Cade Cunningham out for the season?
The Cade Cunningham saga took another turn when he was spotted getting shots up before the game in Miami, which has some speculating that he is not going to have surgery and is going to see if rest will get it done. He’ll be joined by Isaiah Livers in street clothes tonight.
Memphis will be missing Denny Green and Desmond Bane and Jake LaRavia is listed as doubtful. Steven Adams is questionable for tonight.
Detroit Pistons vs. Memphis Grizzlies: Prediction
You never know which Detroit Pistons team you are going to get these days, the one that got eviscerated by the Knicks, the one that beat the Mavericks and Heat and hung tight with the Pelicans or the one that got blown out by the Grizzlies just a few days ago.
I think we’ll get somewhere in the middle and that Detroit will cover tonight but still come up short against one of the NBA’s best teams.
