As a team, the Pistons shot 49 percent from the field, 14-of-35 from the 3-point line, and did everything they could to stay within striking distance until the third quarter, when the Bulls poured in 35 points to escape.

Pistons vs Mavericks prediction
The Pistons are still missing six players, including Cade Cunningham and Isaiah Stewart, while the Mavericks have Kyrie Irving ruled out and Luka Doncic listed as questionable. This is certainly a game where you want to check out the lineup before tipoff, but even if the Mavericks are without their top two players, they still have enough firepower to get past this mighty Pistons team. The Pistons have nothing to play for at this stage of the season, so I'm sticking with the red-hot Mavericks on the big line.
