What to Know

The Suns will be playing the full four quarters on Wednesday, but they're expected to have things wrapped up well before that. Having just played yesterday, they will get right back to it and host the Detroit Pistons at 9:00 p.m. ET on February 14th at Footprint Center. The Suns will be looking to keep their six-game home win streak alive.

The oddsmakers set the bar high, but the Suns and the Kings didn't disappoint and broke past the 245 point over/under on Tuesday. Phoenix secured a 130-125 W over the Kings.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead the Suns to victory, but perhaps none more so than Kevin Durant, who dropped a double-double on 28 points and 11 rebounds. Durant didn't help the Suns' cause all that much against the Warriors on Saturday but the same can't be said for this game. The team also got some help courtesy of Devin Booker, who almost dropped a double-double on 25 points and nine assists.

We saw a pretty high 243.5-over/under line set for the Pistons' previous contest, but the actual score was more down to earth. They took a hard 125-111 fall against Los Angeles on Tuesday. The Pistons have not had much luck with the Lakers recently, as the team's come up short the last six times they've met.

Even though they lost, the Pistons smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 17 offensive rebounds. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as the Lakers only pulled down seven offensive rebounds.

Phoenix is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matchups, which provided a massive bump to their 32-22 record this season. As for Detroit, they continue to see their hopes of redeeming themselves for a poor last season fade as the team sits at a 8-45 record this season.

The Suns strolled past the Pistons in their previous meeting back in November of 2023 by a score of 120-106. Do the Suns have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Pistons turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
