NBA Betting: Pistons-Suns Odds

The Detroit Pistons have raised some eyebrows out of the gate in the 2015 campaign and will take their talents to Phoenix for a date with the Suns on Friday. The Pistons, who are coming off a 94-82 loss to the Pacers on Tuesday, are traditionally a solid bet to bounce back at the betting window. Detroit is 9-0 ATS in its last nine games after dropping the previous game.

Shark Bites
  • The Pistons are 7-0 ATS in their last seven games after losing as favorite.
  • The total has gone under in 12 of the Suns' last 15 games with one day off.
  • The Pistons are 6-0 ATS in their last six games against the Suns.

The visiting team took each of the two meetings last season, but Stan Van Gundy’s squad managed to cover the spread in both affairs. The Suns (3-2 SU) have been a solid play this year, going 4-1 ATS to start the season.

Friday’s contest features a reunion of the Morris twins in the wake of Marcus getting shipped off to Motown in the offseason. Marcus has played great in his new role in the form of 17.3 points and 7.5 rebounds as a member of the Pistons’ starting unit. Markieff, who vocalized his displeasure about the move, is averaging 12.4 points on 34.3 percent shooting through five games.
