Pistons vs Clippers Prediction

The Clippers are probably the better team on paper, but they’re also inconsistent and hard to trust night to night. The Clippers are coming off back-to-back losses and are now 12-15 SU on the road. The Clippers are also down Powell and could be without Kawhi as well. The Pistons have won six straight games and the excitement for this team is building. The Pistons are in a great position to make the playoffs for the first time since Avengers: Endgame was in theaters. 

I’m kind of on the Pistons bandwagon, and getting them in the underdog role feels like a steal. I like the Pistons to get their first win over the Clippers since January 2019. I’ll grab the free bucket with the Pistons at home with decent confidence.
