Stephen Nover's NBA Friday Spread Crusher
(NBA) Detroit vs. Orlando, 03/02/2018 2:00 PM, Score: 106 - 115
Point Spread: 3.00 | -110.00 Orlando (Home)
Result: Win
Fading the Pistons on the road in this spread range is worth a small play. Detroit has lost 19 of its 28 road games. The Pistons' last road victory came against the Nets back on Jan. 10. Detroit is 0-6 SU, 1-5 ATS in its last six away contests.

The Pistons have covered just 27 percent of their last 34 games versus sub .500 opponents.

Orlando is playing hard. The Magic hung in against the Thunder and Raptors, during their last two games, and are 3-3 ATS in their six home games, including a straight-up victory against the Cavaliers.

The Pistons' strength is up front with Andre Drummond and Blake Griffin. They are weak in the backcourt. The Magic can match up to the Pistons up front with a healthy Nikola Vucevic and Aaron Gordon. Rookie power forward Jonathan Isaac could provide a spark and needed defensive help as he's expected to play after missing the last 26 games with an ankle injury.

The Magic rolled past the Pistons when they last hosted them winning, 102-89 on Dec. 28.
