Miami Heat at Detroit Pistons odds, picks and predictions


The Miami Heat (18-12) travel to Little Caesars Arena Sunday to take on the Detroit Pistons (4-24). Tip-off is scheduled for 6 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Heat at Pistons odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The Heat are coming into this game following a 10-point victory over the Orlando Magic.

Just about every team is shorthanded right now, and the Heat are no different, down their two key players on both sides of the ball. G Kyle Lowry is active though. The Heat, at 18-12, are one of the best covering teams in the NBA.

The Pistons, on the other hand, are not. At 13-15, it hasn't been profitable to bet on Detroit. As home underdogs, they're 5-6. Detroit will be led by G Cade Cunningham with star F Jerami Grant expected to be sidelined.
