Detroit — The new year has brought a new mindset for the Pistons, after a disappointing start to the season. They could be playing their best stretch of the season, with three wins in their last five games.
Make it four in the last six.
The Pistons overcame a 22-point, first-half deficit and pushed out to a lead of their own in the third quarter, snatching a 126-116 victory from the Utah Jazz on Monday night at Little Caesars Arena.
After a dismal first half, the Pistons started the third quarter with a flurry, including a pair of 3-pointers from Cade Cunningham, who finished with a career-high 29 points, along with eight assists.
