Atlanta enters the game 9-1 over its last 10 outings. That stretch came against a favorable schedule. Detroit has won three straight since Cade Cunningham was ruled out.
Team form and matchups
Detroit has been strong at home. The Pistons sit 27-8 SU in games played in Detroit this season. They have also taken six of the last seven meetings with Atlanta.
Atlanta relies heavily on a three-guard starting lineup. That structure could create rebounding opportunities for Detroit’s frontcourt.
