Tonight’s Game 5 will see the Knicks host the Pistons in what we're predicting to be Detroit’s final game of the 2024–25 season. Game 4 ended in a controversial loss for the Pistons, but tonight, the Knicks will get the job done at home.
In tonight’s negative correlation style play, we expect both Cade Cunningham and Tobias Harris to hit their respective lines — but it likely won’t be enough to secure a Pistons win. Continue below for my NBA parlay picks for Tuesday, April 29

Cade Cunningham 8+ Assists
Pistons vs Knicks, 7:30 p.m. ET
We are backing Cade to get 8 assists tonight. He’s hit this in three of four games so far, with 21 assists combined over the last two. The Knicks know they need to blitz Cade to keep him from getting clean shot attempts.
If I’m the Knicks, I’ll live with Tim Hardaway Jr. or Ausar Thompson trying to beat us. Statistically speaking, it’s too much for a role player to achieve.
Cade will be forced to pass and we are hopeful that it will keep the pistons in the game but not be enough down the stretch.
Pick: Cade Cunningham 8+ Assists
Tobias Harris 15+ Points
Pistons vs Knicks, 7:30 p.m. ET
We are also taking Tobias Harris to score 15 points. You could argue he’s the team’s third-best scorer behind Cade and Malik Beasley.
He’s been fairly consistent this series, covering 15 in three of four games as well. Coming off an 18 point game I think he will have the confidence to shoot a ton once again. He shot 15 times last game.
Pick: Tobias Harris 15+ Points
Knicks Moneyline
Pistons vs Knicks, 7:30 p.m. ET
While we’re targeting Pistons player props, we see this game coming down to the final minutes — with the Knicks pulling away thanks to their hometown crowd.
Pick: Knicks Moneyline
