    Dimers’ win probabilities

    • Hornets: 27.9%
    • Pistons: 72.1%

    Our NBA win probabilities come from a machine learning model that assesses each team's offensive and defensive performance, along with factors such as recent form, player availability, home-court advantage, and matchup dynamics.

    The model uses these projections to forecast probabilities for the moneyline, spread, total points, and the final score.

    Projected Final Score

    Our model projects the final score for this NBA matchup as Hornets 104 and Pistons 111.

    This is a margin of 7 points against a spread of 0, and a projected total of 215 points.

    A projected score is the middle of a range, not a forecast of the exact result. Use it to see how the game is likely to play out and how each side projects against the spread.
