Detroit Pistons vs Brooklyn Nets: Odds, Spread, and Total
The Detroit Pistons are favored over the Brooklyn Nets in Friday night's NBA Cup group stage game, starting at 7:30 p.m. at Barclays Center. Detroit gained attention last year by challenging the New York Knicks in a key playoff series, while Brooklyn struggled at the start of this season, having not won a regular-season game before Tuesday.
Currently, Detroit is riding a four-game winning streak, including a recent road victory against the Memphis Grizzlies. However, outcomes in the early stages of the NBA Cup tournament have been unpredictable, as seen in East group A where Cleveland and Indiana both hold 0-1 records.
Brooklyn, on the other hand, secured its first win of the 2025-26 season by defeating the Indiana Pacers 112-103 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Despite the Pacers' disappointing 1-7 record, the Nets showed better defensive effort in this game compared to previous matches.
Could Brooklyn's first win, combined with the unusual dynamics of a tournament setting, make them a viable pick?
Note: Data is based on information available as of November 7, 2025, and may have changed since then.
Author's Summary
The Pistons enter as favorites thanks to recent wins, but Brooklyn's surprise first victory and the unpredictability of the NBA Cup create intriguing betting angles.
