Smart Game Analysis
Detroit Pistons has a 85% chance of winning the game
With Giannis Antetokounmpo sidelined and the Bucks struggling on a five-game road losing streak, the Eastern Conference-leading Pistons are poised to dominate the paint and control the pace at home.
Key Analysis
- • Milwaukee is without superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo due to a calf strain, removing their primary scorer, rebounder, and interior defender.
- • Cade Cunningham, averaging nearly 28 points per game, has a significant advantage against a depleted Bucks backcourt that struggles to contain dynamic guards.
- • Detroit boasts the league's second-best rebounding attack (46.5 RPG), which poses a massive mismatch against a Bucks team ranked 28th on the boards.
- • The Pistons enter with strong momentum having won 7 of their last 10 games, while the Bucks have lost 10 of their last 13 contests.
- • Milwaukee's defense is allowing 117.7 points per game, which will be difficult to sustain against a Detroit offense scoring 118.5 points per game.
- • To pull off an upset, the Bucks must rely heavily on high-volume three-point shooting from Damian Lillard and role players like Gary Trent Jr. to overcome the talent gap.
