*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Tuesday, February 7th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Wednesday, February 8th.
Detroit Pistons
As one of a handful of teams that elected to tank right from the first game of the season, there isn’t much activity expected to be coming out of Detroit at the trade deadline
They may still move Bojan Bogdanovic but they’re asking for an unprotected first-round pick for the 3-point sniper as part of the package.
That feels a bit rich for a player who would be at best the third option on a contending team (and more likely coming off the bench or the fourth option as a starter).
Stats
Pistons’ opponents average 119.7 points per game ranking 29th while limiting foes to 49.4% from the field and 36.1% from deep ranking 29th and 17th respectively.
Offensively, the Pistons score 112.3 points per game which rank 24th. From an efficiency perspective, the Pistons shoot 45.5% from the field and 35.8% from the perimeter ranking 26th and 17th respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Marvin Bagley III, PF (OUT indefinitely —hand-metacarpal fractures)
- Cade Cunningham, PG (OUT for season —shin-left tibia stress fractures)
Cleveland Cavaliers
Although the Cavaliers, have maintained their playoff seeding throughout the season as I’ve pointed out repeatedly, this team has gotten the good fortune of facing short-handed teams seemingly more than any other club.
And while you can only play who is in front of you the Cav’s record versus those same teams at full strength isn’t good. In their last 15 games, the Cavs are 8-7. Following up on the previous point in six of those wins either the best player, second best player or both didn’t play.
Stats
Offensively, Cleveland scores 111.8 points per game ranking 26th while shooting 48.7% from the field and 36.9% on the perimeter ranking sixth and 10th respectively.
Cleveland tops the league for opponent scoring limiting foes to an average of 106.5 points per game. Cavs opponents shoot 46.5% from the field and 36.7% from deep ranking seventh and 25th.

Free Detroit Pistons vs. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Prediction:
There is no benefit for the Pistons to win this game other than the pride of showing the Cavs the youngsters on their team are better than their record indicates.
Detroit is 2-4 through the last six games with the Suns and Celtics beating them by a double-digit margin so this spread while generous isn’t out of the question but I’ll still take the points.
