Toronto Raptors vs Detroit Pistons prediction

This line has flipped in the direction of the Detroit Pistons because the Raptors have half their roster on the injury report. The Raptors feel like a team that’s in full on tank mode, with the losses piling up and players popping up injured. The Detroit Pistons have been competitive lately despite the lack of results, and they’ve won 2 of their last 3 games. The Pistons have home court and health on their side for this game, unlike the Raptors. I’ll lay the points with the Pistons if forced to pick this blah game.
