The Detroit Pistons haven’t been able to collect back-to-back victories in the young 2017-18 season but will attempt to accomplish the feat when they travel to California to tangle with the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday.
Sportsbook opened the Pistons as 7.5-point road underdogs with a total of 207.5.
- The Pistons are 5-1 ATS in their last six road games.
- The UNDER is 4-0 in the Clippers' last 4 games.
- The OVER is 4-1-1 in the last six meetings.
Los Angeles is undefeated in the campaign thanks to star power forward Blake Griffin, who buried a last-second 3-pointer in Thursday’s 104-103 win at Portland. Griffin has answered the call as the team’s undisputed leader after ex-Clipper Chris Paul was traded to Houston in the offseason. Griffin is shooting 43.5 percent from downtown and has scored at least 22 points in each of the Clippers’ first four games.
Tobias Harris has been a pleasant surprise for the Pistons, as he’s averaging a team-high 23.6 points and is shooting 52.2 percent from the field including 46.9 percent from beyond the arc. Harris paved the way to a 122-101 victory over Minnesota on Wednesday while contributing 34 points including six 3-pointers.
While the Clippers have been collecting wins, UNDER bettors have also been profiting. The Clippers have gone UNDER in all four appearances this season.
