Here we get the #3 team in the league vs. the #25 team, based on my power ratings. That's a huge difference. Detroit is surging having won six in a row and fifteen out of seventeen overall. Over their last five games, they've outscored their opponents by 8.5 per game. Utah's strength is defense. Their offense, already managing just 84.4 per game at home, will really struggle tonight. And, Detroit has all-of-a-sudden turned into an offensive powerhouse. They've scored over 101 per game over their last five and they have hit the century mark nine times already (more than half of their games). Detroit for one star.
