Game review

Detroit beat Brooklyn 110-94, pulling away after trailing through the first and deciding the game in the second and third quarters. The Pistons outscored the Nets by 14 in the second and 19 in the third, turning a seven-point deficit after one into a 26-point cushion entering the fourth.

Cade Cunningham led Detroit with 20 points, Ausar Thompson had six assists and John Collins nine rebounds. Brooklyn got 16 points from Moritz Wagner, four assists from Mikel Brown Jr. and nine rebounds from Noah Clowney. The team stats explain the gap: Brooklyn committed 24 turnovers to Detroit’s 12, and Detroit won fast-break points 27-11 and paint points 48-36. The Nets rebounded better and blocked more shots, but Detroit’s extra possessions and transition scoring controlled the game.

For bettors, Detroit covered the 8.5-point spread by 7.5, and the closing total of 222.5 finished under by 18.5.
