Pistons Rank Third in Odds
(The Pistons have the best record in the Eastern Conference. Photo: David Richard-Imagn Images)The Detroit Pistons are the top team in the Eastern Conference with a record of 45-15 and have been getting MVP-caliber play from star guard Cade Cunningham. They are 30-8 against the East and are hoping to make a deep playoff run after getting knocked out in the first round last season against the New York Knicks.
Cunningham is scoring 25.2 points per game, and he is second in the league with 9.9 assists. Detroit hasn’t been all that great from downtown this season and is shooting 34.4% from deep. That is 25th in the league.
Celtics Getting Tatum Back
(Tatum could return from an Achilles injury on March 5. Photo: Paul Rutherford-Imagn Images)The Celtics are 41-21 and hold the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. There is a lot of optimism from fans about the team’s NBA Finals chances with Jayson Tatum close to returning from an Achilles injury. He could be back as early as tomorrow. This would pair him with Jaylen Brown, who has been an absolute beast this season. Brown is scoring 28.9 points per game, which is 5th in the league.
For a team that didn’t have high expectations coming into the season, Boston has been very good and is in a great position to make a deep run in the playoffs after it gets Tatum back up to speed.
Can the Cavs Make a Run?
(Mitchell has been dealing with a groin injury. Photo: David Dermer-Imagn Images)The Cleveland Cavaliers are fourth in the East with a record of 39-24 and have been dealing with their fair share of injuries throughout the season. Right now, Donovan Mitchell is dealing with a groin injury that has kept him out of the last 4 games. New addition James Harden is playing through a thumb injury. Regardless, a semi-healthy Cavaliers team will be a tough matchup in the playoffs.
Donovan Mitchell is scoring 28.5 points per game and will be turning up the heat in the postseason. The Cavaliers have been knocked out of the playoffs in the second round in each of the last two seasons.
