Pistons at Kings: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Kings 119, Pistons 116

Money line (ML)

The Kings (-350) will cost you three and a half times your potential return, and that’s too risky since they enter on a four-game losing streak.

PASS.

Against the spread (ATS)

The PISTONS +7.5 (-110) have been a little erratic lately, blowing out the Washington Wizards 120-91 last Thursday, then getting routed by 44 points against the New York Knicks at home Saturday.

They bounced back with a 24-point win in Oklahoma City, then were dropped by 15 in Denver Tuesday. So which Detroit team will show up? That’s the risk. They’re still playing better than Sacramento, but go lightly here.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 225.5 (-110) is the best play on the board in this game, hitting in five of the past six for Detroit. The Over is also 4-0 for the Pistons in their past four as underdogs.

The Under is 5-1 in Sacramento’s past six as a favorite, but the Over is 17-7 in their past 24 at home and 4-0 in the past four when playing on two days of rest.
