The Detroit Pistons, on a 27-game losing streak, are set to face the first-place Boston Celtics in Boston, where they open as 17 to 18.5-point underdogs, the biggest underdog on record since the Suns +24 vs. the Mavs in 1993. This matchup presents the largest line of the season and the most significant for the Celtics since 2008. Remarkably, a bettor who placed $100 on the Pistons to lose at the beginning of the streak and rolled over the bet would be up $310,000, while a $100 bettor fading the Pistons on the moneyline during the streak would be up $1,083. The Pistons' season win total over/under sits at 11.5, and they are +900 to get their first win in 28 games, with 73% of the bets backing them so far. Despite being the most-bet NBA moneyline at +850 ML, the Pistons face longer odds than the Celtics, Bucks, and Nuggets to win the NBA Championship. One bettor has even placed a $1,000 wager on the Pistons' moneyline, which would result in a $10,000 win if they manage to defeat the Celtics.

The Mavs -24 vs. the Suns in 1993 stands as the biggest underdog on record for an NBA game since 1990, per @ESPNStatsInfo. Will the Pistons, on a 27-game losing streak, outdo that as they face the 1st place Celtics in Boston tomorrow?
