Detroit’s spacing with Duncan Robinson stretches defenses and allows Cunningham to control tempo. The Pistons have been solid both at home and on the road..

Jaren Jackson Jr. averages 17.2 points and remains the focal point of the frontcourt, while Santi Aldama leads the team in rebounds with 8.0 per game. The Grizzlies have received strong contributions from Cedric Coward and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, both adding perimeter scoring to offset.

Ja Morant leads the Grizzlies in scoring at 22.0 points per game but was suspended for Sunday’s game with Toronto. Memphis has been competitive in most outings, with a one-point win over Phoenix and a decisive victory over Indiana.

Detroit Pistons at Memphis Grizzlies Prediction

Detroit’s ball control and rebounding advantage make the Pistons the better choice in this matchup. Cunningham’s leadership and half-court play give Detroit the edge, while Duren’s interior presence should help slow Memphis inside. The Grizzlies have enough shooting to keep the game close, but Detroit will win a close game on the road. Final Score Prediction: Detroit Pistons win and cover ATS 119-115.
