Detroit Pistons (5-15) vs. Phoenix Suns (11-6)
The Detroit Pistons will wrap up their six-game road trip Friday, November 25, 2022, with the cross-conference clash against the Phoenix Suns at Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona, and the tip-off is set at 9:00 PM ET.
Detroit meets Phoenix for the first time in 2022-23, and the Suns aim for their fourth consecutive victory over the Pistons. Last season, Phoenix beat Detroit 135-108 as an 11.5-point road favorite and 114-103 as an 11.5-point home fave.
The Detroit Pistons (5-15; 9-9-2 ATS) have linked a couple of wins for the first time this season. After stopping a seven-game losing streak with a 110-108 victory at the Denver Nuggets, the Pistons stunned the Utah Jazz 125-116 as 12-point road underdogs this past Wednesday. Playing on the second day of a back-to-back set, Detroit shot 49.4% from the field and 50.0% from downtown (12-for-24) while outscoring the Jazz 52-42 in the paint.
“Ball movement! We probably had only two possessions where we over-dribbled. … The ball moving beats any rotation in the league,” Detroit coach Dwane Casey said.
