Detroit Pistons vs. Sacramento Kings

The Detroit Pistons take on the Sacramento Kings on Sunday (November 20) at the Golden 1 Center in NBA Regular Season action.

The Kings are currently 8-6 as they sit in sixth place in the Western Conference standings, while the Pistons are rock-bottom of the East with a 3-14 record. The Pistons haven't won any of their last six games, while the Kings have won all of their last five. The betting odds and predictions are given below.

On form, this game is done and dusted before it even starts. The Kings have the second-best offensive rating in the entire NBA with 118.0. They are currently scoring the most points per game of any team in the NBA with 120 per game. They also have the best field goal percentage in the entire NBA, making nearly 50% of all of their field goals. Their three-point numbers are also astonishing, as they are currently scoring nearly 15 3Ps a game on 38% efficiency.

De'Aaron Fox has been sublime for the Kings, scoring 25 a night coupled with 6.4 assists per game. He already has eight 25+ point outings this season with only 13 games played.

The Pistons are having a terrible time out there. They are winless in six and have gone 1-9 over their last 10. They are statistically the worst team in the NBA at the time of writing. They have a bottom-five rating in the offense and are the second worst-rated defense in the entire league. They currently have the lowest FG% (42.8) in the entire NBA, scoring only 108 points per game. An even more concerning stat is that they are scoring a fifth of their total points via free throws.

Cade Cunningham's season has gone slightly under the radar as he is scoring 20 points, six rebounds, and six assists per game on nearly 50% true shooting.

Pistons vs. Kings Betting Prediction

The struggling Pistons face one of the most entertaining and in-form sides in the NBA tonight. The Pistons have been terrible thus far and are rightfully the massive underdogs in this one. The Kings are fresh off blowing over the Nets and should be in for a similar game in this one as well, taking on one of the worst defensive setups in basketball.

Kings: -9.5 (-110)
