DET vs PHI Dream11 : Second straight win in Detroit Pistons’ sights against a depleted Philadelphia 76ers outfit

Defeating a sturdy Cleveland Cavaliers side in their previous preseason tie, Detroit Pistons pulled off a stunning result, one which puts them in good stead ahead of today’s’ impending clash. And taking on a Philadelphia 76ers currently riddled by injured, the Pitons will be quietly confident of making it two wins on the bounce when the two sides meet in the forthcoming encounter.
It was the nature of Detroit Pistons’ win in the previous match which made heads turn and see them stall tall amongst their counterparts. In an attacking galore, extradonaire encounter, the side managed to scrape through to a 109-105, showing the resolve needed to hang onto a win in the culminating stages of the match.
Elsewhere, despite suffering a spate of injuries, Philadelphia 76ers were themselves impressive in their bygone clash. The side pulled off a comprehensive and well rounded win over the Magic, winning with ease in a 126-94 display, one the side will be looking to reciprocate ahead of today’s impeding clash as well. For them, this clash is all about trying out new names with Kyle O’Quinn, Matisse Thybulle, Shake Milton and Jonah Boldenall set to feature for the outfit in this one as the side look to compensate for the absence of their star performers.
With the upcoming edition of the season a week away now, both the side’s will be looking to use this clash as a means to iron out impending issues and address the final gaping holes before they get their sorties underway. This should be a clash which should see both compete in a manner akin to a regular encounter, a fixture which promises to regale us in a riveting and meticulously crafted affair.

Elsewhere from the opposition we have divulged in the services of Shake Milton.
