Pistons cool off Jalen Brunson, snap Knicks' winning streak 

His lowest shooting percentage in a game all season also came on the heels of one of his typical monster outings — he scored 42 on 51.9% with 10 in the second overtime of a big 134-127 win over the Denver Nuggets.  

But two days later, Brunson was ice cold as the Pistons made a statement that they should be the true favorites to come out of the East and reach the NBA Finals. 

Pistons' top star also struggled mightily 

Offensively, Detroit was able to fall a basket shy of 120 points as a team, thanks to their depth. Like Brunson, Cade Cunningham struggled to sink shots. He finished with just 11 points on a 4-of-11 night.

Pistons showed off their depth in the win 

But Tobias Harris stepped up, scoring 15. Paul Reed added 12 of his own while leading New York in minutes played at 27. Entering the day with a scoring average of 7.9 points per game, Daniss Jenkins carried the load with an extremely efficient 18 points with a 63.6% shooting clip. 

With the win, the now 38-13 Pistons snapped New York's eight-game win streak and dropped the Knicks to 33-19, putting them 5.5 games back and in third place in the conference standings. 

Knicks will get one last shot at Pistons in a couple of weeks 

The Knicks will have one last crack at getting revenge on Detroit when they meet for the final time of the regular season on Feb. 19 inside Madison Square Garden.
