There are five games scheduled at the end of November, including the Philadelphia 76ers vs Detroit Pistons matchup. It's a battle between two teams having different starts to the season compared to the previous one. Saturday's game is their second matchup of the campaign, with the Pistons winning 105-95 on Oct. 30.
Philly has been ravaged by injuries this season along with locker room issues that should have been kept private. They are 3-14 despite having Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George on their roster. Embiid is having knee issues again, while George seemingly can't stay healthy.
Meanwhile, the Pistons are 10th in the Eastern Conference standings at 9-12. They might have a losing record at the moment, but they didn't get their 10th win until March last season. Cade Cunningham is playing like an All-Star, while veterans such as Tobias Harris, Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway Jr. are making an impact.

Tyrese Maxey has an over/under of 24.5 points, which is lower than his season average of 25.7 points per game. Maxey is also coming off a 39-point performance in the loss to the Houston Rockets.

Jaden Ivey is one of the most improved players this season, averaging 18.6 points PPG. Ivey has an over/under of 16.5 points and has even odds heading into the game. Bet on him to score at least 17 points since he's done it in four straight games.
