Key Stats
Detroit Pistons
The Detroit Pistons could keep things interesting if they were at full strength. Unfortunately without Cade Cunningham, there isn’t a chance. Furthermore, Buddy Boeheim is coming off a strong 13-point performance. But Chimezie Metu scored 17 points in his last game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Both players need to step up in a major way for the Pistons.
New York Knicks
New York is nearing full health and coming into form. Furthermore, they are looking forward to the return of some of their players. Jalen Brunson is coming off a 17-point and 9-assist game against the Brooklyn Nets. Additionally, Donte DiVincenzo scored 31 points in the same game.

Game Prediction
This is a game that should be particularly close. The Detroit Pistons are even more undermanned than usual. Furthermore, the Knicks are playing better as of late. Everyone knows the New York team will win at home. The only question remaining is how much they will win. If the Detroit team was at full strength then you’d consider the Pistons covering. But for tonight, the New York Knicks will cover this over double-digit point spread.
Final Pick
New York Knicks – 16.5
