Premium Pick

James Harden remains out of the lineup for Houston, but Gerald Green has stepped up to fill his role, averaging 28 points off the bench in Harden's stead. The Rockets average over 115 per game while Detroit can barely manage to reach triple-digits. Houston has surprisingly been a better team on the road this season (13-4 SU and 10-7 ATS) than at home (14-6 SU and 7-12 ATS), as their defense is measurably better away from home. Dating back to last season, this team is 38-24 ATS on the road. And, under Mark D'Antoni, the Rockets are 23-7 ATS on the road after a home game. Play Houston.
