Detroit Pistons vs Charlotte Hornets: Current situation
Detroit continues to be one of the biggest, if not the biggest, surprises of the season so far in the NBA. They have a firm grip on the 6th seed in the Eastern Conference at 26-26, that has to feel good for a franchise that has spent most of the decade so far near the bottom of the league in terms of wins and losses. They also have their first All-Star since 2019 and the days when Blake Griffin was on the team.
The Hornets almost had an All-Star of their own, but LaMelo Ball couldn’t make the cut after not getting enough votes from players and coaches. That hasn’t stopped him from putting up big numbers though, the talented point guard is at 28.2 points per game this season while also being a nightly threat to get 10 assists as well.
Detroit Pistons Stats & Form
Cade Cunningham did not play in the Pistons latest win as they took down the Philadelphia 76ers 125-112 as 3.5 point underdogs. Malik Beasley had a career game with 36 points, including 9 threes made, Jalen Duren also stepped up with 13 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists as the Pistons overcame the 76ers big 3 of Maxey, Embiid and George. The win means that the Pistons have now covered the spread in 4 of 5 games, they are also 4-2 ATS in their last 6 at home.
Charlotte Hornets Stats & Form
LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges had 24 and 25 points respectively as the Hornets took down the San Antonio Spurs on their home floor on Friday night. The game was marked by superior rebounding from the Hornets, which is a bit surprising considering they traded away their center Mark Williams to the Lakers right before the trade deadline. Moussa Diabate stepped up with 15 boards in the game, including 7 of them on the offensive end.
Detroit Pistons vs Charlotte Hornets: Head-to-Head
These teams have met 3 times already this season and each time it was the home team that came out with the victory. The game played in Detroit saw both teams finish under 100 points, but circumstances have changed and there is a very small chance of that happening again on Sunday. This will be the 132nd regular season meeting between the two teams all-time, Charlotte has a slim lead in wins with 66 to Detroit’s 65 wins.
Detroit Pistons – Charlotte Hornets Odds

Betting tip and prediction: Detroit Pistons vs Charlotte Hornets (09.02.2025)
Just 194 points were scored in the latest meeting between the Pistons and Hornets, but that was mainly due to the fact that the Hornets were without LaMelo Ball and they played at a really slow pace to compensate for his absence. Ball is back and playing really well at the moment, so an increase in scoring is expected here. Trading away Mark Williams was an odd move by the Hornets, this could really hurt them against a strong interior team like the Pistons. Detroit allows just 50.7 rebounds per game this season which is the 4th lowest amount in the entire NBA. Over their last 3 games that number is down to just 46.3, so the Hornets could have issues retaining possessions here. Stopping scoring in the paint is another area that the Pistons could excel in here. At 46 allowed points per game from the painted area, Detroit ranks 4th best in the NBA, this could force the Hornets to opt more for the perimeter shot to say in this game. That’s not a good thing if you’re a Charlotte fan here, only 4 teams in the NBA have a lower efficiency from the perimeter this season. If Cade Cunningham is able to return from injury in time for this game, the Pistons should be able to take care of business at home and level the regular season series at 2-2 with a win. We are backing the home team to cover.
