Detroit at Washington

The Detroit Pistons are pushing for a playoff spot as this young team, led by Andre Drumond, begins to take shape. The one thing that holds this team back is their lack of focus on the defensive end of the court, and in their last two games they have allowed 118 and 111 points. Washington looked to be a team on the rise, making the playoffs a year ago, but need a strong stretch drive this year to return to the post-season. Washington has lost five straight games, but four of those were on the road, and I look for them to get back on track here vs. Detroit. The Wizards fit into a very strong, long term situation that has blown up the books for a 442-320 ATS mark over the last 20 years and continues to shine, having gone 44-33 ATS so far this season. Make the play on Washington.
