DET vs DEN Dream11 Match Prediction

 

DET vs DEN Dream11: In an inter-conference matchup in the NBA 2019-20 regular-season Detroit Pistons hosts Denver Nuggets at Little Caesars Arena on Sunday night (IST). The Pistons have are tumbling down the Eastern Conference table, and arrive in this game on the back of a five-game losing run. But what will hurt the team and the fans is that four of those defeats have come in home games, which is not something any team can afford if it wants to qualify for the post-season. Detroit now find themselves dangling outside the playoffs seeds in the Eastern Conference.
Denver Nuggets have no such problems as they are second in the Western Conference heading into this match. They won the last two matches, including a signature 115-127 win over Milwaukee Bucks in the last game.
