The Pistons went 20-11 on the road as a favourite in the regular season, and they’re backed to win in Orlando after clicking in Game 2. Detroit won 98-83 last time out, and they head to a Magic side that went 23-30 against sides through the regular season. Detroit can recover from their Game 1 shock to take a series lead in Game 3.

Phoenix covered in 12 of the 18 games in which they were a home underdog, and there are shades of OKC’s first-round series from 2025 in this one. The Thunder went 2-0 up against Memphis a year ago, but the Grizzlies rallied to push them at home in what was ultimately a 2-0 sweep. This Suns side is much more defensively disciplined, while the Thunder failed to cover in almost half of their away trips in which they were favoured during the regular season.

The Hawks have won the last two games by a point, and they’re now favoured to win this seven-game series. Given how tight the previous two games have been, the two points the Hawks are getting here could make all the difference. Atlanta is 22-7 across the regular season and playoff since the All-Star break, and they’ve won 15 of their last 16 at home.

Aaron Gordon missed Game 3, disrupting the rhythm of the Nuggets on both ends. With him seemingly coming back on Saturday, I’m expecting a completely different approach. Going down 3-1 is not an option, playing under pressure should bring the best out of this team. Denver clawed their way out of the series from this position against the LA Clippers a year ago, and they’ve added depth to their roster since then.
