Injury Report
Detroit Pistons @ Brooklyn Nets
Game Time: 3:30 pm ET
BetMGM Lines
Pistons +3.5 (-110), Nets -3.5 (-110), O/U 219.5
Key Storylines
Detroit, city of losses: The Pistons’ influx of veterans have not helped them to rack up wins. They look more competitive than their past selves, but the additions of Tobias Harris, Tim Hardaway Jr. and company haven’t flipped the Detroit script. But it has made for some interesting fantasy storylines and some lovely points and 3s streamers.
Premier backcourt: Cam Thomas and Dennis Schroeder make up a high-usage and high-scoring backcourt. Paired with the never-ending Ben Simmons saga, the Nets are fun and hovering around .500. We just wish that their backcourt fg% would also hover around the same number.
Stream of the Game
Dorian Finney-Smith presents himself as a reliable source of points, 3s, rebounds and steals.
Alternatives:Â Noah Clowney (rebounds and blocks), Jalen Wilson, Ziaire Williams, Tim Hardaway Jr., Malik Beasley (points and 3s), Ron Holland (steals)
