The Pistons improved during the offseason, drafting Jaden Ivey and Jalen Duran, while acquiring Bojan Bogdanovic from the Jazz. They will be without Marvin Bagley III (knee) to begin the season, but having shooters like Bogdanovic and Saddiq Bey on the floor for more minutes alongside Cade Cunningham might actually be better. The Magic will be thin at guard with Markelle Fultz (toe) and Gary Harris (knee) out, and they were only 10-31 on the road last season. Look for the Pistons to emerge from this game with a victory.
I think the Pistons will take a solid step forward this year with Cade Cunningham on the way to stardom, trades for Bojan Bogdanovic and Alec Burks, and the addition of rookies Jaden Ivey and Jalen Duran. We get to see Cunningham matchup with this year's No. 1 overall pick in Paolo Banchero of the Magic. Detroit was one of the best ATS bets in the final few months last year.
