Pistons vs. 76ers Prediction
The Pistons failed to get the job done against the Philadelphia outfit when they had the home-court advantage. Now that they're on the road, the injury-laden team will likely struggle even more.
Arguable team MVP Bojan Bogdanovic is out tonight, which does not bode well for the Pistons' offensive chances. With Cade Cunningham out for the season, the Detroit outfit are seriously lacking top players.
The 76ers, meanwhile, are having a respectable season thus far. On offense, the team has frequently been led by Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. Embiid's likely absence from tonight is an alarming prospect, but the team still has enough firepower to get the job done again against a struggling outfit like the Pistons.
Prediction: 76ers -10.5 (-110)
