Pistons vs Pacers Prediction & Pick

The Pistons recently became the favorite to win the Summer League and there's a ton of reasons why. Detroit has gotten to the free throw line 61 times through two games, showcasing their willingness to play physical. The Pistons are also seeing immediate contributions from rookies like Jalen Duren and Jaden Ivey.

Indiana isn't too far behind in the odds, but its inability to defend the perimeter was on full display Sunday. The Kings drained 18 three-pointers on 41 attempts and it ended up being the difference-maker. That could happen once again considering the Pistons nailed 14 three-pointers in their most recent game.

I'll keep rolling with the Pistons here to pull off an upset victory (+120).
