The Pistons take on the Miami Heat on Sunday and one player to target is a favorite of ours, Simone Fontecchio. Fontecchio has torched Miami twice this season for 22 and 24 points since he was traded to Detroit, even in the game he played with Utah, he scored 12 points but secured 7 rebounds as well. Miami is susceptible to the type of shot he takes, 3s and catch and shoot opportunities. Furthermore, Fontecchio can put the ball on the floor if needed and drive to the rack. Fontecchio has averaged 20.1 PR over his last 10 games but 25.8 against the Heat in four contests over the last two seasons with 19+ in each of the four. His rebounding floor is fairly high with the potential for spikes in both scoring and rebounding. I expect Fontecchio to exceed 17.5 PR.

I’d take up to o13.5 at +100 for a full unit. 24 and 22 vs MIA in the last week - the spot up shooting effect is real. Plus, Miami won both games - I don’t see them shifting off of their coverage of Cade on the PnR. No Ausar or Grimes again, so playing time should be 32+ mins. 8/L10 with 30+ mins, with two misses at 12.
