Detroit appears to be running out of gas in its quest to make the playoffs as it has lost three of its last four games while allowing an average of nearly 118 points. The Pistons followed up a humiliating blowout loss at Washington with a 118-114 defeat at home against the Hawks on Wednesday. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 24 points and Andre Drummond added 18 points and 18 rebounds, but Drummond continued his awful free-throw shooting missing nine of 17 foul shots. Sacramento lost to New Orleans 123-108 as the Kings couldn't stop the hot shooting of the Pelicans, who had a .544 field goal percentage in the game. Darren Collison scored 23 points and DeMarcus Cousins added 20 points with 12 rebounds in a losing cause. Detroit is 1-10 ATS with one day of rest and the underdog has covered 11 of the last 14 meetings. Play the Kings plus the points.
