Pistons started the championship with two wins in three games but then lost three games in a row - Oklahoma (112:124), Portland (101:110), and New Orleans (116:125). Under new coach Monty Williams, Detroit has started to play faster and attack more aggressively, but the defense is still struggling.
Detroit's leading scorer through the early part of the season is Cade Cunningham, scoring 22.7 points per game. Another talent - Jaylen Duren - has stood out. The center is averaging 14.8 points and 11.6 rebounds.
Phoenix Suns
Much of the Suns' failures at the start of the season are due to Devin Booker's injury. One of Phoenix's leaders returned to the floor in the second game against San Antonio and showed himself well, but they didn't play against Philadelphia again. The result was a 100:112 defeat and very poor offensive efficiency. Without Booker, Phoenix has a clear lack of scorers. Kevin Durant scored 31 points in the meeting with Phila. And the second most efficient is Eric Gordon, with only 13 points.
Expect Betting Tips
In the second game against San Antonio, Devin Booker looked quite healthy and scored 31 points. We believe that the Suns did not release their leader for the game against Philadelphia, saving him for the meeting with Detroit, which is certainly much easier to beat. If Booker plays, Phoenix is likely to beat Detroit, and the meeting will be productive, as the guard will add to the team's offensive efficiency.
