Detroit Pistons vs Miami Heat Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Predictions
The Detroit Pistons will play host to the Miami Heat at Little Caesars Arena in the first NBA Emirates Cup match of the season on Wednesday morning. The Pistons (4-7) are 10th in the Eastern Conference, while the Heat (4-5) are seventh in the conference standings. Let’s get into the prediction.
The Detroit Pistons have made a steady start to the season but will be hoping to get back in the win column here after a slender 101-99 loss to the Rockets on Sunday.
Cade Cunningham put up 26 points to help the team rally back from a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter, but they went cold in the final three minutes, scoring just four points.
Detroit’s offence has been underwhelming this season, averaging 107.1 PPG (26th in the league), though they have been very good on defence, allowing 109.6 (eighth in the NBA).
Meanwhile, the Miami Heat avoided a fourth consecutive defeat last time out when they just about managed to hold off the Timberwolves 95-94 on the road.
Tyler Herro top-scored for the team with 26 points, while Nikola Jovic contributed 15 off the bench and Terry Rozier added 11 as the team shot 44% from the field.
Miami are now ranked 22nd in the scoring charts, putting up 109.0 PPG, but they too have been much better on defence, currently inside the top 10, allowing 109.9 PPG.

Our Detroit Pistons vs Miami Heat Prediction
The Detroit Pistons have fared better than many would have expected this season, largely thanks to their defence, though they are still a side that you would be tentative to back on a regular basis.
Miami, meanwhile, have struggled on offence without Jimmy Butler but are solid at the other end and are coming off arguably their best win of the season. With two good defences on display here, we’re leaning toward the Under in this one. Our Detroit Pistons vs Miami Heat prediction: Under 220.5!
