My Pistons vs. Raptors predictions and NBA picks break down this East battle and explain why Detroit presents more problems for the home team.

Pistons vs Raptors prediction

Pistons vs Raptors best bet: Pistons moneyline (-110)

The Toronto Raptors are fifth in the conference and 7-3 in their last 10. However, those losses came against Minnesota, Orlando, and New York, all of which featured double-digit second-half collapses.

The Detroit Pistons will present similar problems. They have the best record in the East and are the only team with a better net rating than Oklahoma City.

This is a matchup of Top 10 defensive teams, but Detroit also has a Top 10 offense, while Toronto lacks efficiency, ranking 18th in effective field goal percentage.

Pistons vs Raptors same-game parlay

Defensive battles usually mean lots of rebounds, and the Pistons are one of the best rebounding teams in the NBA. But with Jalen Duren getting a two-game suspension, that could mean more work from Ausar Thompson.

Thompson averages 6.6 rebounds over his last 13 games, topping 6.5 eight times.

No Duren means Raptors center Sandro Mamukelashvili should have some more room to work in the paint. Mamukelashvili is averaging 15.5 points over his last 12 games, going Over 12.5 points nine times in that stretch.
