Detroit Pistons vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction

I get the Spurs got bad news on Wembanyama and are on the end of a back-to-back. I still don’t understand this line. The Pistons have struggled with consistency and wins over the Bulls and Hornets don’t move the needle. Also, I like that the Spurs have had a chance to get back in the swing of things, while the Pistons still haven’t played in a week. The Spurs still have good players on their team and don’t have to travel after playing last night. I believe this line is a bit of an overreaction to the Wemby news, as I’m just not here with the Pistons to lay this sort of number on the road. Give me the Spurs in a game they could win outright.
