Tip&#8209;off is set for 7:30 p.m. ET on FDSIN and FDSDET. Detroit enters as a heavy 13&#8209;point favorite, while the game total sits at 225.5 points.<\/p><p>The Pistons have won both prior meetings this season, and Cade Cunningham continues to lead Detroit&rsquo;s offense. Pascal Siakam and Andrew Nembhard pace Indiana, but the Pacers face a tough challenge against one of the East&rsquo;s top teams.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Bet for Pistons vs Pacers<\/h2><p><strong>Best Bet: Pistons -13 (<a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-Draftkings-Sportsbook\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"-110 (opens in a new tab)\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>-110<\/a>)<\/strong> Book: Best price at DraftKings<\/p><p>Our best bet for Pistons vs Pacers is Detroit -13 (<a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-Draftkings-Sportsbook\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}' rel=\"nofollow\">-110<\/a>) against the spread. The Pistons rank top&#8209;10 in scoring (117.6 PPG) and top&#8209;5 defensively (111.1 PAPG). They&rsquo;ve covered in 21 of 39 games this season and are 12&ndash;5&ndash;1 ATS when scoring more than 118.3 points.<\/p><p>Indiana has struggled offensively (111.0 PPG, 28th in NBA) and has been outmatched in most road contests. While the Pacers have covered as big underdogs twice this year, Detroit&rsquo;s balance and depth make them the stronger side.
