Pistons vs. Raptors, 3 p.m. ET

Pick ATS: Pistons +11

Even though the Pistons have an abysmal overall record, they are 22-29-3 ATS as an underdog this season. The Raptors have been alright as the favored team, posting a 13-10 ATS mark as a home favorite but 14-18 ATS as a favorite overall.

Over/Under: Under 228
