Wizards vs Pistons Prediction 11/12/26 NBA Picks Today

Wizards vs Pistons Prediction

I keep giving the Wizards a look in the underdog role because there’s talent on this roster. The problem is the Wizards aren’t winning or covering numbers, and enough is enough. The Wizards have lost 7 of their last 10 games and have failed to cover 4 of their last 5 games. The Wizards just got beat up last night by the injured Pacers. They’re now on the end of a back-to-back. I’m close to jumping off this team completely. Young looks awful, and the offense overall has been a disappointment.

The Wizards are 27th in scoring per game and 29th in three-point percentage. No thanks. The Pistons have the rest advantage, and they’ve covered 7 of their last 10 games. The Pistons also just beat the Wizards by 11 points a few days ago. Thick line, but it has more to do with the Wizards than anything. This team looks bad. I’ll lay the points with the Pistons.
