Detroit Pistons Team News
The Pistons started this season very well and they took the very good Ivey in the Draft with him and Cade Cunningham they will try to build the future for the franchise from the “Motor City”. They had very good games and victories this season, but injuries and inexperience cost them a better score. They are in the last place in the very strong East with almost 15-45, and they have no chance to get hold of the fight for play-in we believe that in the rest of the season, they will play with young players and try to get the best place in the Draft.
During the last transfer deadline, they made a couple of rotations. They traded one of their best shooters, Sadiq Bay, for James Wiseman, the former second pick in the draft and one of the league’s most promising centers. But Wiseman has had problems with injuries since he came into the league, just like Marvin Bagley who can’t put together a couple of games without injuries.
However, next to Ivey and Cade the team’s most consistent player is Bojan Bogdanovic. Despite Detroit’s bad games, the popular Babo plays in his rhythm and screens the opponent’s hoops. Next to Bagley, Cade will not be present in this match, who is injured. In the last match, the Pistons were defeated by the Magic away from home with a two-point difference, and Ivey was the most efficient with 25 points, while Wiseman had 8 points and 10 rebounds in his debut.
Toronto Raptors Team News
The team led by the experienced Nick Nurse is struggling to avoid the play-in and they have been playing very well lately. They are currently in ninth place with a record of 29-31 and are only three wins behind the sixth-placed New York Knicks.
During the last transfer deadline, they brought in the great center Jacob Poltl, who recorded great games with the San Antonio Spurs. A player who is the prototype of that old-school center who is dominant with his back and in the jump, but can still spread out and shoot from distance. A great choice for Toronto is his signing.
However, the main player is certainly Pascal Siakam, who with his long stride breaks defenses and distributes balls to his shooters or finishes at the hoop. In the last match, they defeated the unpleasant Pelicans by five points. And Siakam scored 26 points, while Poltl showed class and added 18 rebounds along with 21 points. The Raptors are on a streak of 3 wins, while in the last 7 games, they have 6 wins.
