Golden State Warriors: news and form
After a great start to the season, the Warriors are struggling and have lost ground at the top of the Western Conference standings. Remaining on only 4 wins in their last 10 games, Steve Kerr’s players are now 3 behind Phoenix and see their pursuers getting closer, while they have a 2 win lead over Memphis, 3rd. A victory tonight therefore seems imperative and the Warriors will rely on their defensive solidity for that, while Golden State is the best defense in the league and collects an average of 102 points per game, once morest 109.9 points scored per game.
Golden State: players to watch
Stephen Curry is having another season at a very high level and is truly Golden State this season with 26.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 6 assists on average. The American leader is assisted by Draymond Green, faithful to his works with 7.9 points, 7.6 rebounds and 7.4 assists, but also by Andrew Wiggins (18.5 points, 4.3 rebounds) and Jordan Poole (17 .2 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists), which have gradually gained in importance within the workforce.
Detroit Pistons: news and form
The Pistons are experiencing a very complicated new season: 14th in the Eastern Conference with already 4 victories behind the Pacers, 13th, Detroit has won only 10 games this season, once morest 32 defeats, and is weighed down by a catastrophic record at the exterior with only 3 wins in 21 games played away from home. 2nd worst attack in the league with 101.4 points scored on average per game, the Pistons are also in difficulty on their side of the floor with 111.3 points conceded per game this season, the 24th record in the NBA. We will therefore have to do better on all fronts to hope to win this evening.
Detroit: players to watch
The Pistons will have to do without winger Jerami Grant, Detroit’s top scorer with 20.1 points in 24 games, and will thus trust rookie Cade Cunningham, drafted in first position in the 2021 Draft, which runs at 15.7 points , 5.6 rebounds and 5.3 assists this season. The American winger is assisted by Saddiq Bey, who is having a great season with 15 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists.

The Warriors start as big favorites for this meeting and should logically win once morest a Detroit team once once more in great difficulty this season and remaining on a defeat. Golden State should thus dominate this meeting and to see Steve Kerr’s players being in front at halftime and winning this match seems logical.

The American leader has been in difficulty recently, like his team, and should not be flamboyant during this meeting despite the weakness of the opponent. A performance below 37.5 therefore seems likely.
