Kings at Pistons picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 125, Pistons 115

Moneyline

The Pistons only have 3 wins all season and are 1-32 in their last 33 games.

The Kings have won 4 of their last 6 games and are 8-7 on the road.

The way the Pistons' season has gone thus far, an ML bet on them is just a waste of money, and betting the Kings at -650 just does not pay out enough to be worth the action.

PASS.

Against the spread

Three of the Kings' last 4 wins were by less than Tuesday's point spread. They are only 12-15 ATS when favored.

The Pistons are 15-21 ATS on the season and 6-4 ATS in their last 10 games. Only 2 of their last 9 losses have been by more than 11 points.

BET PISTONS +11.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Five of the Pistons' last 6 games have had totals higher than Tuesday's projection.

Two of the Kings' last 3 games have surpassed this game's projection. They have allowed 130 or more in 3 straight games.

BET OVER 239.5 (-110).
