Cade Cunningham scored 19 points to lead the visiting Detroit Pistons to a 106-92 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday.
Cunningham was one of six players in double figures for Detroit. Tobias Harris and Malik Beasley scored 18 points each, Jaden Ivey finished with 15, Tim Hardaway Jr. added 14 and Jalen Duren had 13 for the Pistons, who have won two of their past three games.
Duren finished also grabbed 17 rebounds.
Despite a 26-point performance from Cameron Johnson, the Nets fell to 3-4.
HAWKS 126, PELICANS 111: Jalen Johnson scored 29 points and Atlanta snapped a four-game skid with a victory over host New Orleans.
Pelicans star forward Zion Williamson was scratched from the lineup with right hamstring tightness shortly before the game, leaving Brandon Ingram as the club’s only usual starter in uniform.
Ingram scored 32, but it wasn’t enough to overcome a Hawks squad with six players with at least 11 points.
Trae Young scored 23, while former Pelican Dyson Daniels added 16 for Atlanta. Larry Nance Jr. scored 14.
MAVERICKS 108, MAGIC 85: Luka Doncic had 32 points and nine rebounds and seven assists, Daniel Gafford scored a season-high 18 points and host Dallas beat Orlando.
The defending Western Conference champions outscored the Magic 30-9 in the first 9:30 of the second quarter en route to a 65-40 halftime lead. The Mavericks’ largest lead was 33 points.
Orlando played its second game without Paolo Banchero, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2022 draft who suffered a torn right oblique last Wednesday.
