Preview:
I like Detroit here as 4.5-point home underdogs. Despite the majority of early bettors coming in on Toronto, the line has moved in Detroit’s favour. This suggests to me that the sharp bettors love this situational spot for the Pistons.
The Raptors travel to Detroit after a back-to-back, meaning that this is their third game in four nights. Marc Gasol is questionable here, as are bench pieces Rondae Hollis Jefferson, Malcolm Miller, and Patrick McCaw.
Detroit should also be very motivated here, primarily due to head coach Dwayne Casey. Casey won Coach of the Year in 2017-18, before being unceremoniously dumped by this same Raptors side.
Known for being an excellent motivator, I expect his team to play very hard for him here. Combine the reverse line movement, a motivational advantage, and extra rest and I expect Detroit to keep this one close, if not win outright.
Odds:
Tip: Toronto Raptors at $1.46
