5 minLos Angeles Lakers vs. Detroit Pistons Prop Pick: Will Anthony Davis, Lakers Bounce Back On Road?
The Los Angeles Lakers are facing off against the Detroit Pistons tonight, in what should be a good matchup for Anthony Davis. Historically, Davis has dominated the Pistons, and I believe tonight should be no different for the Lakers star Center. The last few similar Centers to Davis have also dominated the Pistons, and I believe Davis is more skillful than him so he should have himself a game. I think this line is too low for him, and I believe he'll cash this prop for us tonight.

Los Angeles Lakers vs. Detroit Pistons Prediction
I'm going back to Anthony Davis at a lower line. Last game, he had eight points in the first quarter before finishing on 17 because of a blowout where he didn't play in the fourth quarter. Davis comes into this game averaging 21.8 points per game on the season.
Somehow for Davis, he has only covered this line in four out of nine games, in those games he scored: 30, 19, 9,16, 27, 26, 10, 32, and 17 points. His misses have come against Memphis who allows 10th least points to opposing centers, Sacramento who allows the least points to opposing centers, Portland and Dallas where he only had four field goal attempts, and Philly where he didn't play in the fourth quarter.
Today is a great bounce back for Davis who comes up against the Pistons who play at the 6th fastest pace in the NBA. In the past, Davis has absolutely dominated the Pistons, covering in his last six games and putting up 24, 30, 30, 24, 38, and 34 points. It's a great individual matchup given the Pistons allow the 9th most points in the paint to opposing centers. Correspondingly, AD attempts over 82% of his field goals from within the paint.
Similar centers going against the Pistons have scored:
- Bam Adebayo (22 points)
- Nikola Vucevic (21 points)
- Deandre Ayton (16 points)
- Jonas Valanciunas (23 points)
- Joel Embiid (33 points)
- Myles Turner (23 points)
