Auburn Hills — In the fourth quarter, it looked to be a carbon copy of a familiar script for the Pistons this season: take a double-digit lead, squander it and take another loss.
In the last few minutes of regulation, things went off script — including an 18-0 run and a pair of tying free throws for Andre Drummond.
It was an unusual end to a performance that needed an extra act, as the Pistons took an improbable 127-122 overtime victory over the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday night at The Palace.
It’s the second straight win for the Pistons (10-9), who trailed by as many as 16 points with just over eight minutes left in regulation.
