How to make Pistons vs. Wizards picks<\/p>\n

After 10,000 simulations of Wizards vs. Pistons, SportsLine’s model is going Under on the total (226.5).\u00a0The Under has hit in four of the last six head-to-head meetings. The Under has also hit in four of the last eight Washington games, while the Under has hit in six of the last 10 Detroit games. The Wizards are 4-2 against the spread in their last six games, while the Pistons are 6-4 ATS in their last 10.<\/p>\n

The SportsLine model is projecting Washington’s Alex Sarr<\/a> to score 19 points on average and be one of four Wizards players to score 11.1 or more points. Detroit, meanwhile, could be shorthanded with Cunningham and Harris both questionable. Additionally, the team just traded away Jaden Ivey, while new acquisition, Kevin Huerter (trade pending) is also questionable. Thus, the model calls for 221 combined points as the Under hits in 59.8% of simulations.<\/p>\n

It has also generated an against-the-spread pick that hits nearly 70% in simulations.\u00a0You can head to SportsLine to see the model’s NBA picks<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n
