The Pistons simply had no answers for the Suns last night, but those types of flat spots have rarely endured for JB Bickerstaff's bunch this season. To wit: Detroit has lost consecutive games just twice, and not within the last month, usually bouncing back smartly from a loss. The Pistons have no serious injury concerns at the moment, and last night's result might be a more a case of a tough matchup vs. Phoenix, which also when minus Devin Booker played Detroit tough at Little Caesars on January 15. We still view the current version of the Warriors quite warily, with no Jimmy Butler or Jonathan Kuminga, and losing three of five minus Butler, with Wednesday's win at Utah hardly a buy signal. Play Pistons.
This is a large line for De’Anthony Melton considering his role, usage, and playing time for the Warriors. It’s also a bit inflated due to having eclipsed this in three consecutive games. He’s playing against one of the top perimeter defenses in the league and this line typically hovers around 10.5 to 11.5.
