Detroit Pistons vs Chicago Bulls Betting Preview
The Detroit Pistons return home Wednesday night looking to extend their winning streak to eight when they face the Chicago Bulls at Little Caesars Arena. Tipoff is set for 7 PM ET and coverage will air on CHSN.
Detroit pulled off a 137-135 overtime win Monday against Washington despite missing several key players. Coach J.B. Bickerstaff praised his team’s effort and toughness, saying the group “refused to quit.” Cade Cunningham earned Eastern Conference Player of the Week honors after posting 46 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists.
Chicago dropped its third straight, falling 121-117 to San Antonio. Nikola Vucevic had 28 points and 14 rebounds in the season opener versus Detroit, but the Bulls have struggled to maintain consistency during their recent skid. You can compare matchup data and results on the NBA Previews
