Detroit Pistons vs Washington Wizards Prediction & Picks - NBA

 by Carlos Zabala | in NBA Picks

Two teams with losing records in the NBA. The Wizards and Pistons meet on Sunday at Capital One Arena in Washington. However, it is the Wizards who are in the worst shape in what looks to be another failed season for them, as they have a 2-9 record to start having lost their last 7 games.

The worst defensive rating in the NBA, the Wizards' 120.2, was once again noticeable when they allowed the Hawks to score 129 points in Friday's game that counted for the NBA Cup. The Wizards had started off playing well and actually had a 10-point lead in the second quarter, but a very bad second quarter where they could only score 11 points doomed their game that would end 117-129 in favor of the Hawks.

That same Friday, the Pistons beat the Raptors to remain undefeated in the NBA Cup. They won despite being rather inaccurate on 3-point shots, making just 8 of 38. The Pistons will be favorites to hand the Wizards their eighth consecutive loss by 5.5 points.

Our Detroit Pistons vs Washington Wizards Prediction

The Wizards' good recent record against the Pistons seems unpromising next to their poor performances in the first 11 games of the 2024-2025 season. Quarters where they only score 11 points, like Friday's against the Hawks, can take you out of any game at this level. Meanwhile, the Pistons remain in the play-in zone with a 6-8 record. Cunningham leads the team with 23.2 points per game. Our prediction for Pistons vs Wizards is: Pistons -4.5, -120 at BetMGM
