Pistons are Covering With Ease on the Road

The Golden State Warriors are currently riding a three-game winning streak, but when you’re used to seeing a team dominate like the Warriors usually do you could call their efforts underwhelming so far. Stephen Curry and company will look to regain their top-notch form vs the Detroit Pistons at home on Sunday.

Shark Bites
  • The Warriors are 1-7 ATS in their last eight games overall.
  • The home team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings.
  • The OVER is 4-1 in the Warriors' last five home games.

One player who hasn’t struggled is Kevin Durant. Durant has already posted two double-doubles on the year and has scored at least 20 points in every contest so far. The defense continues to be an area of concern, as the Warriors are allowing 114.2 points per game and have struggled on the offensive glass.

Detroit is riding a high right now after kicking off their three-game California road trip by beating the NBA’s only remaining undefeated team, the L.A. Clippers, on Saturday. Andre Drummond was a big reason for the victory, as the big man finished with 15 points and a season-high 17 rebounds for his fourth consecutive double-double. The Pistons held the Clips to 15 points below their previous season-low offensive output.

Dating back to last year, the Pistons have been an excellent road wager. In Detroit’s last seven road affairs, they’re 6-1 ATS. They’ve also covered the spread in every game in the young campaign.
