*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Friday January 17th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Saturday, January 18th.
Phoenix Suns
With four wins in their last five games, the Suns are beating the teams they should, but they have yet to showcase their prowess against elite clubs. Inconsistency and a lack of depth remain the main issues for the Suns.
Meanwhile, the rumor mill hasn’t stopped buzzing about the potential for a trade and just how the Suns will convince Bradley Beal to waive his no-trade clause.

The Suns have struggled against the spread with a 13-26-1 record through 40 contests.
Suns Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Jusuf Nurkic, C (OUT — illness)
- Bradley Beal, SG (OUT — ankle)
- Nick Richards, C (OUT recently traded to Suns)
Detroit Pistons
I noted recently how the next eight games and the upcoming road trip would provide a very good litmus test for the Pistons to gauge just how far they have come. They already lost to the Pacers and will face another six above .500 teams.
Momentum appears to be growing for Cade Cunningham to attend his first All-Star game based on his leap this season with the above trip likely playing a major influence on whether he makes it in.
Pistons Stats
Detroit ranks 16th both on offense (111.9) and defensively (113.0) with a net differential of minus -1.1, ranking 18th overall.
The Pistons emulate their win/loss standing with a 21-19-1 record against the spread through 41 contests.
Pistons Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Jaden Ivey, PG (OUT indefinitely — broken fibula)
