Best Bet for Phoenix Suns vs Detroit Pistons

Best Bet: Detroit Pistons -4.5 (-106)

Book: Best price at FanDuel

Our best bet for Phoenix Suns vs Detroit Pistons is Pistons -4.5 (-106) against the spread.

The Phoenix Suns maintain the 16-best offensive rating in the league, whereas their defensive rating puts them in the seventh spot. The Pistons on the other hand, who are playing excellent basketball this season, have the 11-best offensive rating and the second-best defensive rating. In both cases, the Pistons have gotten an edge over their hosts for tonight.

The spread at Pistons -4.5 doesn’t fit Detroit well considering how they dominate both ends of the court. We expect the number to be around -6 or -7. The Pistons cover comfortably in such spots.

Considering their edge and overall form, we are laying the Pistons -4.5 as our Best Bet, and expect them to cover the number tonight.

Same-Game Parlay Picks for Phoenix Suns vs Detroit Pistons

3-Leg SGP (Safer)

Leg 1: Detroit Pistons -8.5 (alternate spread)
Leg 2: Jalen Duren Over 16.5 points
Leg 3: Cade Cunningham Over 23.5 points

Combined odds: +803

We have built this same-game parlay around the Detroit Pistons to take the Suns down in their own backyard. Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren are top two Pistons scorers, who have been shouldering their team’s offensive duties in every game that they have played.

These legs are correlated, considering if the Pistons take control of the court right from the beginning, their players get volume. Cunningham and Duren would want to utilize the edge that their side has gotten, and dominate the scoresheet. Hence, this is our safer SGP option.

Top Player Props for Phoenix Suns vs Detroit Pistons

Given how prop-heavy NBA betting is, we are also eyeing these player props for Phoenix Suns vs Detroit Pistons on Thursday.

Dillon Brooks Over 21.5 points (-106)
Grayson Allen Over 17.5 points (-125)
Jalen Duren Over 10.5 rebounds (-132)

These legs fit well into usage and volume. Dillon Brooks and Grayson Allen are top scorers for Phoenix Suns. They would want to take advantage of their familiarity with the court and score well for their team to stay in the game. Jalen Duren dominates the glass in the paint, and we expect him to do the same against a comparatively weaker defense that the Suns are.
