The Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers meet Wednesday in NBA action at the Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

The Detroit Pistons need a win after losing eight of their last 11 games. The Detroit Pistons are averaging 107.1 points on 44.2 percent shooting and allowing 110.8 points on 47.8 percent shooting. Jerami Grant is averaging 23.3 points and five rebounds while Josh Jackson is averaging 13.2 points and 2.1 assists. Shaddiq Bey is the third double-digit scorer and Delon Wright is grabbing 4.6 rebounds. The Detroit Pistons are shooting 34.9 percent from beyond the arc and 77.3 percent from the free throw line. The Detroit Pistons are allowing 37 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 42.8 rebounds per game.

The Indiana Pacers need a win after losing five of their last eight games. The Indiana Pacers are averaging 113.1 points on 47.2 percent shooting and allowing 113.2 points on 46.9 percent shooting. Malcolm Brogdon is averaging 21.6 points and 4.7 rebounds while Domantas Sabonis is averaging 20.2 points and 6.2 assists. Caris LeVert is the third double-digit scorer and Myles Turner is grabbing 6.5 rebounds. The Indiana Pacers are shooting 36 percent from beyond the arc and 78.8 percent from the free throw line. The Indiana Pacers are allowing 38.2 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 41.8 rebounds per game.

The Pistons are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games playing on 2 days rest. The Pacers are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 home games and 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games overall. The under is 5-1 in Pistons last 6 overall. The over is 5-1 in Pacers last 6 overall. The Pistons are 2-8-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Indiana and 3-1-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings.

The Detroit Pistons aren’t a team I’m thrilled to back, but they have played better over the last couple of weeks and have quietly covered six of their last seven road games. The Indiana Pacers just won back to back games against the Heat, but they’re still losing their last five games by an average of 4.2 points while allowing 47.1 percent shooting from the field. The Pacers are 6-13 against the spread at home where they lose by an average of 0.3 points. I’ll take a chance with the Pistons and the points.
