Suns vs Pistons prediction

Suns vs Pistons best bet: Cade Cunningham Over 26.5 points (-112)

Cade Cunningham is having an All-Star campaign for the first-place Detroit Pistons. The former first-overall pick is doing it all, averaging 26.7 points, 9.7 assists, and 6.2 rebounds per night while shooting 34% from 3-point land. 

The Pistons star has cashed the Over in points in three straight games to begin January, dropping 31, 27, and, most recently, 29 against the New York Knicks on Monday night. 

Cunningham is averaging exactly 26.9 PPG at home in 2025-26, and dating back to last month, he has actually hit the Over in points in six consecutive outings. The guard also comes in well-rested and will continue his streak against the Phoenix Suns.
