Hawks cover as favourites
Pre-game Pistons vs Hawks odds tab Atlanta as the three-point favourite. We think there’s value to be found here without moving to the game-winner market, which carries a shorter price.
Atlanta are 11th in net rating for the season. While Detroit has seen some positive signs from a development perspective, they are still one of the league’s worst teams and own an ugly 2-8 record on the season.
Bet 1: Atlanta Hawks -3
Cunningham runs the show for Detroit
Cade Cunningham has landed this over in three of his last five games. The former first-overall pick has been at the controls for this Pistons offence, picking opponents apart even with suboptimal spacing.
At 7.1 assists per game for the campaign, Cunningham is also averaging more potential assists than LeBron James, Jalen Brunson and Damian Lillard.
Bet 2: Cade Cunningham over 6.5 assists
Capela struggles against Pistons’ rim protection
Detroit’s opponents shoot just 58% at the rim, which is the best mark in the league. It’s no secret Capela depends on lobs and putbacks for his points – the former Rocket has taken 82% of his shots at the rim this season.
Regardless of previous head-to-head stats, we love the value on Capela’s under here. Atlanta will be forced to look elsewhere for their offence with Ausar Thompson, Jalen Duren (if healthy), and Isaiah Stewart protecting the cup.
Bet 3: Clint Capela under 8.5 points
Pistons keep Johnson under control from the perimeter
The Pistons give up the second-best three-point rate. Opponents are shooting them at an average percentage, but Detroit is keeping the volume under control by running shooters off the line.
Jalen Johnson has excelled since being put into the starting lineup, but his outside shooting comes and goes. He’s made over 1.5 threes just twice in his last six games, and we wouldn’t be surprised if the Pistons limit him to under four attempts from beyond the arc.
Bet 4: Jalen Johnson under 1.5 threes made
