The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to draw even with the Detroit Pistons in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals on Monday, May 11.
Jarrett Allen and Donovan Mitchell will have to be at their absolute best to make that happen, and we've got a Pistons vs. Cavaliers same-game parlay that expects exactly that.
It's all part of our favorite Pistons vs. Cavaliers predictions and NBA picks for this playoff clash.
Our best Pistons vs Cavaliers SGP for Game 4
SGP leg #1: Jarrett Allen Over 12.5 points
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen has thrived when tasked with playing opposite Detroit Pistons big man Jalen Duren. While the scoring upside didn't materialize against the Raptors in Round 1, Allen has cleared this total in two of three vs. Detroit, easily topping 12.5 points in back-to-back games.
In 11 career matchups with Duren, Allen has averaged 14.6 points. He scored 13+ in seven of those head-to-heads, including four of five at home.
SGP leg #1: Donovan Mitchell Over 27.5 points
Donovan Mitchell has scored 30+ points in back-to-back games. In five matchups with the Pistons, he’s averaged 30.8 points and scored 29+ four times. Mitchell has been a more potent scorer at home, and I expect him to come through in a big way as the Cavs look to even up the series.
SGP leg #1: Cavaliers moneyline
The Cavaliers built momentum after a win in Game 3, and they can tie the series at two games apiece with a win in front of the home crowd. The home team has won five straight in this head-to-head, and Cleveland is 31-12 straight up as the home favorite this season.
Cleveland has been a Jekyll & Hyde act this postseason between its home and away matchups. On the road, the Cavs are 0-4. But at Rocket Center, they're 5-0, and I like that undefeated streak to continue here.
