Languishing in the dearths of the Eastern Conference, for Washington Wizards and Detroit Pistons, the ramifications emerging from this tie are colossal. Both units have endured calamitous seasons, wavering in form, a narrative which leaves them in paramount need of a win when they step out on the court today.
For 12th placed Washington Wizards in particular, a win is needed to arrest a regressing set of events which see them placed right in the trenches of the points tally. They have gone onto lose the three games in succession with the previous 140-111 thumping handed out by the Raptors epitomising their angst at the moment.
It’s something which Detroit Pistons will be looking to capitalise on as they look to keep their mini revival in the league intact. The side have gone onto win two games on the bounce with the side getting the better of Atlanta Hawks the last time around, a comprehensive 136-103 win which infused much needed life into what has been an otherwise lacklustre campaign.
Probable Winner
Washington Wizards have immense issues in defence and it’s something which will lead to their demise today. Detroit Pistons are in rousing form at the attack, traversing past sides with ease with their ruthless attacking unit set to pummel their opposition on the day.
