Pistons vs Clippers NBA Preview
Action PRO projects Pistons guard Cade Cunningham for 24.74 points tonight, a nice 19% edge against the market when compared to his 27.5 line.
While the Clippers season has been terrible so far, their defense is not, as they rank 13th in points allowed per game with 115.3.
Cunningham has averaged 23.3 points in his last 10 games, and even though he is coming off a 29-point performance against the Jazz, the worst defense in the NBA, this line against Los Angeles seems high.
The Pistons star has only four games with 24 or more points in 11 contests in December. Also, if Detroit builds a comfortable margin, he will probably get some rest in the 4th quarter.
Fade him today on his points line against the Clippers.
Pick: Cade Cunningham Under 27.5 Points (-118, BetMGM)
