The Detroit Pistons will look to complete a two-game series sweep as they visit the Washington Wizards for the second time this week.
Washington has kept it close with Detroit in each of their meetings this season, and I’m taking the home team to cover again in my Pistons vs. Wizards predictions and NBA picks below.
