Detroit Pistons Rally Past Milwaukee Bucks, Prepare for Phoenix Suns Clash
The Detroit Pistons generated significant attention after a challenging first quarter on Sunday, managing a comeback to secure a decisive victory against the Milwaukee Bucks. Although the game was part of the preseason, and the Bucks were without their league superstar, Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Pistons are pleased with their progress following a week of training camp. The team’s performance indicates promising potential for the upcoming 2024-2025 NBA season.
Looking ahead, the Pistons are set to face the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday. The Suns are considered one of the leading teams in the Western Conference and possess the necessary star power to compete for the title. The Pistons, who have undergone significant changes in their front office and coaching staff, aim to maintain their momentum from Sunday’s game as they continue their preseason schedule.
Tuesday evening’s match-up will provide the Pistons with an opportunity to assess their core players’ performance. Notably, veteran forward Tobias Harris was absent in the previous game due to illness. The team anticipates that Harris, who was signed on a $50 million contract over the next two years, will play a crucial role in the coming season. Seeing Harris in play within the new system could enhance the excitement surrounding the Pistons’ preseason preparation.
The Pistons’ and Suns’ game is scheduled to take place at the Breslin Center. Tip-off is at 7:00 PM ET. Current odds favor the Pistons with a spread of -3. The moneyline stands at DET -158 and PHX +128, with a total over/under set at 223 points, according to various sources. It should be noted that these odds are subject to change.
