Jerami Grant scored 11 fourth-quarter points and 24 for the game. His jumper with 19 seconds remaining proved to be the finishing touch for the Pistons, who ended their eight-game losing streak. Saddiq Bey and Cade Cunningham each added 20, as Detroit shot 53 percent from deep and grabbed 18 offensive rebounds.
Jaylen Brown scored 31 while Al Horford added 19 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists. The Celtics weren’t able to extend their winning streak to 10 games, and they go into all-star break with a 34-26 record.
Although Detroit has the NBA’s worst record, they weren’t chanting “1-2-3-CANCUN” just yet.
