Nets, Kevin Durant overpower undermanned Pistons

Detroit — In their first game the Pistons announced that Jerami Grant will miss at least six weeks because of a thumb injury, they were looking for who would replace the production from their leading scorer.

The who turned out to not be one person; instead, it was a group effort, with a big hand from the reserves.

The second unit accounted for 48 points, including 25 points from Frank Jackson and 17 points from Saben Lee. It wasn’t enough, as the Brooklyn Nets rallied early in the fourth quarter and took a 116-104 victory on Sunday night at Little Caesars Arena.
