Bulls at Pistons: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Bulls 111, Pistons 105
Money line (ML)
The Bulls (-375) will cost you nearly four times your potential return, and that’s too expensive on the road, even against a poor Pistons (+290) side.
AVOID.

Against the spread (ATS)
The PISTONS +8.5 (-110) were dusted by the 76ers on Saturday, and they have a quick turnaround.
However, they’re 10-1 ATS across the past 11 games as an underdog of 8.5 or more points. Roll with Detroit, as they should be able to keep it within single digits.
Over/Under (O/U)
UNDER 219.5 (-110) is the play here. The Under has connected in six in a row for the Bulls while going 9-4 in their past 13 as a favorite.
The Under is 5-2-1 in the past eight home games for the Pistons, while cashing in six of the past eight as a ‘dog. The Under is also 5-2 in the past seven when working on no rest.
