Detroit Pistons vs Cleveland Cavaliers prediction
The Cleveland Cavaliers are racking up the wins and covers, and they’re starting to get healthy, so you can understand why this line is so steep. However, the Pistons have been quietly covering numbers as well, as they’re 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games. Also, the Cavs have beaten the Pistons twice this season already, but it’s Detroit that’s covered both games. The Cavaliers also have to go to Memphis tomorrow, so this could be a look ahead spot or a win and get out situation as they hope to save their legs. All that to say, I’m grabbing the points with the Pistons.
