The Pistons have won their last two meetings with the Raptors, owing to a better than usual three-point shooting percentage. The Raptors lost their match in the clutch in their last game, but their three-point defence was much better.

If there were a word that could describe the Toronto Raptors’ season, it would be “almost”. They clearly have the talent to run with a number of teams, but struggle to close out games.
In their recent loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, the Raptors squandered a six-point half-time lead by only scoring ten points in the third quarter. They only made four field goals in the quarter, all at the rim.
These are moments where the Raptors must lean on Pascal Siakam and Fred Vanvleet. They were given the superstar contracts, but they fail to follow-through when their team needs them most.
The Pistons have handled the Toronto Raptors in their two meetings this season. Much of that is owed bench production and shooting, something they’ll need when they meet their cross-border rivals again.
In their two matches against Toronto this season, the Detroit Pistons have shot 32 of 70 from three and have averaged 43 bench points per game.
The Pistons have some pieces missing for this upcoming game, but they’ve been able to step up in past meetings with Toronto. Whether or not Jerami Grant makes an appearance is still up in the air, so Dwane Casey will look to veterans Mason Plumlee and Wayne Ellington to lead the line.

Canadian international Chris Boucher may be slight, but he overcomes his physical limitations with heart and effort. He was massive in the Raptors’ last meeting with the Pistons, something head coach Nick Nurse will hope he can build on.
Last time the Raptors met the Pistons, Boucher posted 21 points, five rebounds, three assists, and four blocks. In his most recent game, Boucher had 18 points, 11 rebounds, and one block on six of eight shooting from the field.
The Pistons, like Toronto, don’t play a traditional center so Boucher should thrive. If he can make up for the points lost from the Norman Powell trade, the Raptors have a chance against their rivals.
Saddiq Bey continues his hot shooting from beyond the arc, and is on track to soon hold the record of most 3-point shots made by a rookie in team history! Be sure to tune in for the rest of tonight’s action on FOX Sports Detroit. #DetroitUp pic.twitter.com/xtsLOrWz6X

Pistons rookie forward Saddiq Bey has certainly had an up-and-down rookie season, but he’ll look to take a step forward against the Toronto Raptors.
In his last meeting with the Raptors, Bey had one of his best performances of the season. The rookie posted 28 points, 12 rebounds, two assists, and two steals – all while shooting an ultra-efficient 83.3% from the field.
Bey’s energy from the wing position is an issue for the undersized Toronto Raptors. Bey could once again be a game-changer.
