Premium Pick

Detroit hasn't won a road game in more than two months and the Pistons are 1-8 ATS their last nine road games. Portland has won 11 games in a row and the Trail Blazers remember an embarrassing 20-point loss to the hapless Pistons on Feb. 5.  Detroit managed a backdoor cover at Denver on Thursday but that followed a 31-point loss at Utah. Portland comes off a big win over Cleveland by outrebounding the Cavaliers 50-34 and C.J. McCollum and Damian Lillard combined for 53 points. Detroit is 7-21 ATS its last 28 games overall and Portland is 16-4-1 ATS its last 21 home games. Also, the Blazers have covered six straight after allowing at least 100 points their previous game. Lay the points with the Trail Blazers.

1 unit on Portland -8.5 (-103) (risk 1 to return 1.97)
