Portland Trail Blazers vs Detroit Pistons Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/05/25

The Portland Trail Blazers have seen their last 3 games surpass the 230-point mark, clearing the over on this line in 2 of those contests. One of the main reasons why they have seen their games become high-scoring encounters is due to the fact that over the last 10 games, they rank 5th in the league in pace. Tonight, they will visit a Detroit Pistons team that also ranks in the top 10 in that category, so we should see a fast tempo in this game. The visitors have played better on the road than at home this season, averaging 119.9 points per game on their travels, more than 3 points per game than they do in front of their own fans.

Jrue Holiday will remain out for the visitors, which will make the game much easier for Cade Cunningham. He has started December slow for his standards, having not surpassed the 20-point mark in the last 2 games. Against a team just 20th in defensive rating this season, it should be his chance to have a bounce back performance. It is worth noting that the Pistons have had trouble keeping opponents off the offensive glass, as they are 20th this season in opponent second chance points per game. With the Trail Blazers 4th in points per game in that category, it should give them a great avenue to get quick and easy scores. Back the over as a result.
