Tail or fade as you please, but I bet based on data and not emotions. Despite their 28 game losing streak, Pistons have noticeably looked stronger and more complete their last five games ever since getting back Jalen Duren. They now have rim protection (which will be needed against Scottie and Siakam drives), and defensive rating has moved up 8 spots. As a squad, despite their meltdowns, they’ve been able to keep every game competitive from start to finish recently. Raptors are coming off a grueling defeat last night vs. BOS where starters had to play full minutes. And they just lost OG Anunoby (better for Bojan/Cade), Achiuwa, & Flynn off the bench. Pistons on the other hand, have played 6 of their L8 games on the road, come home tonight, then go on another four game route trip. It’s a clear now or never bet.

Good look @PropBetGuy

J.Duren o24.5 Pts+Rebs-104

Also over in 9/12 games of 28+ mins. Averaging 24 P+R in 30 mins - I just don’t think the line is reflective of the minutes he’s getting tonight. I have him at 34 (with upside for more, based on foul trouble - but TOR draws the fewest fouls per game). 34 mins in an average matchup would have him at 27.

J.Duren o11.5 Rebs-115

Over in 9/12 games he’s played just 28+ mins - all three misses at 11. Back from injury, Monty has immediately played him big minutes, realizing they need him on the floor. No Stewart, and Bagley/Wiseman have been bad.
