Portland Trail Blazers vs Detroit Pistons Prediction & Picks - NBA

 by Carlos Zabala | in NBA Picks

The Pistons have had an encouraging start to 2025 and are just one game away from matching their win-loss record. Detroit won their first three games in January, all at home, and on Monday they finish their four-game homestand when they host the Trail Blazers as 6.5-point favorites at the betting sites. By that same margin, they will once again be 6.5-point favorites against the Trail Blazers. The Pistons, playing as favorites at Little Caesars Arena, have a 4-2 record but are covering the spread at 1-5.

The push to get their record to 18-18 is backed up by the excellent game they played on Saturday in Detroit to beat the Timberwolves. Cunningham scored 40 points and was the Pistons' strongman. Despite Ant scoring a career-high 53 points, the T-Wolves fell to a great team effort from the Pistons, where Beasley followed Cunningham in points by scoring 23. In the end, the home team won 119-105, in a game in which, as underdogs on the betting sites, the Pistons had a biggest lead of 53 points.

The Trail Blazers also greatly surprised the Bucks at the Firserv Forum in their last game. They beat them 105-102 in a game where Simons led Portland with 28 points.

Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Detroit Pistons Prediction

These teams from different conferences have not crossed paths since February of last year in what was a Pistons 128-122 OT win in Portland. Now, in January 2025, the momentum seems to favor the Pistons who after a terrible 2023-2024 season, this new one seems to have the potential to really fight for one of the play-in spots. After it seemed that Cunningham would not play on Saturday, he finally did and with 40 points he ended a strange 3-game streak for him without scoring at least 20. It seems like a good game for the Pistons to complete the homestand only by winning. Our prediction for Pistons vs Trail Blazers is: Pistons -6.5.

Prediction:

 

Pistons -6.5
