The Detroit Pistons and the Memphis Grizzlies collide at the FedExForum on Wednesday night.

Detroit Pistons

The Detroit Pistons have been in decent form as they’ve split their last eight games and they will be eager to keep it going after outlasting the Raptors in a thrilling 102-100 home win on Monday. Jaden Ivey led the team with 25 points and eight assists on 10 of 13 shooting, Malik Beasley added 14 points with five assists while Jalen Duren chipped in with 13 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks. As a team, the Pistons shot 44 percent from the field and 12 of 37 from the 3-point line as they looked be in trouble after squandering an early 17-point lead, but they stayed within striking distance and played great defense in the fourth quarter to snatch the game away thanks to Ivey who drained the game-winner at the buzzer.

Memphis Grizzlies

Meanwhile, the Memphis Grizzlies have been in great form as they’ve won four of their last five games overall and they will be gunning for a fourth straight victory after blowing past the Trail Blazers in a 123-98 home win on Monday. Ja Morant led the team with 22 points and 11 assists, Jaren Jackson Jr added 21 points with six rebounds and three blocks while Santi Aldama chipped in with 13 points and 17 rebounds off the bench. As a team, the Grizzlies shot 49 percent from the field and 12 of 28 from the 3-point line as they jumped all over the Trail Blazers at the start, setting the tone with 36 points in the first quarter which meant they were always in cruise control with the Trail Blazers not putting up much of a fight.

Detroit v Memphis free prediction

The Pistons are still missing their best player in Cade Cunningham, while the Grizzlies are still missing Zach Edey and Vince Williams Jr. The Pistons have been one of the surprise teams in the league this season and they would’ve taken so much confidence from their thrilling buzzer-beating win over the Raptors in their last outing, while the Grizzlies have continued their strong form with another blowout win over the Trail Blazers on Monday. It’s hard to go past the Grizzlies to get the win at home, but I think the Pistons can hang around and keep it to single digits.
