Milwaukee Bucks vs Detroit Pistons Prediction 12/3/25 NBA Picks Today

The Detroit Pistons and the Milwaukee Bucks collide at the Fiserv Forum on Wednesday night.

The Detroit Pistons have been in terrific form as they’ve won 17 of their first 21 games and they will be aiming for a third straight victory after outlasting the Hawks in a 99-98 home win on Monday. Jalen Duren led the team with 21 points and 11 rebounds, Cade Cunningham added 18 points with eight rebounds and eight assists while Ronald Holland II chipped in with 17 points on six of eight shooting off the bench. As a team, the Pistons shot 44 percent from the field and a miserly five of 26 from the 3-point line which aren’t impressive numbers, but the Pistons have been able to rely on their defense which was the difference in the end as the Pistons held the Hawks to just nine points in the final 5:34 to escape with the narrow win despite missing some free throws down the stretch. Tobias Harris had a night to forget as he shot just two of 14 from the field for his nine points while Daniss Jenkins shot just three of 16 for his six points.

Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks have been in dreadful form lately as they’ve lost eight of their last nine games and they will be hoping for a better effort after falling short to the lowly Wizards in a 129-126 road defeat on Monday. Kevin Porter Jr led the team with 30 points and five assists on 12 of 15 shooting, Giannis Antetokounmpo tallied 26 points with seven rebounds and four assists while Ryan Rollins and Gary Trent Jr each scored 14 points. As a team, the Bucks shot 55 percent from the field and a sizzling 21 of 38 from the 3-point line as they got off to a quick start and looked to be in full control after taking a 16-point lead in the third quarter, but they never put the Wizards away and it cost them in the fourth quarter where the Bucks allowed 38 points to come up just short in the end.

The Pistons are keeping an eye on Duncan Robinson who is questionable with an ankle sprain, while the Bucks are sweating on the availability of Gary Harris and Kevin Porter Jr. The Pistons have been one of the form teams in the league so far, they are relatively healthy and they are coming into this fresh off a nice win over the Hawks who have been a team on the rise lately. In contrast, the Bucks have been mired in their worst slump of the season and just lost to the lowly Wizards in a game where they were leading by 16 points. The Bucks haven’t looked like the same lately and I think the Pistons will take advantage and earn the win and cover at this short line.
