Phoenix Suns vs Detroit Pistons Prediction
As I mentioned in the Pistons – Bucks write up, the Detroit Pistons are a young team that should have success in the preseason. So far, so good. With that said, I’m not a fan of laying big numbers in the preseason, as these games are meaningless no matter how you slice it. The Phoenix Suns also looked sharp offensively in their opener against the Lakers, so this has a chance to be a decent game. While the Suns may not play their starters much, I’m still grabbing the 4.5 points.
