Dallas at Detroit

Dallas still has motivation to finish with the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference and the Mavericks have won and covered four of their past five games, including 118-112 over Milwaukee on Sunday when Luka Doncic scored 32 points with 15 assists and eight rebounds and the Mavs shot 51.3 percent. Dallas won the only meeting this season 116-86 in February and it is 4-1 ATS the last five meetings with Detroit. The Pistons actually have won three in a row, but the last two were against Oklahoma City and Indiana and Detroit won despite shooting only 43.0 percent in the two games. Cade Cunningham is questionable with a hip injury for the Pistons, who are 2-6 ATS the last eight meetings at Detroit. Dallas has covered five straight versus teams with .400 or below winning percentages. Play the Mavericks.
