INDIANAPOLIS - The Detroit Pistons keep winning and Brandon Jennings hot hand has been a big part. Mahmoud Dahoud Jersey .Detroit has picked up victories in 10 of their last 12 games and Jennings has averaged 21.6 points in that run. Friday night, he scored a season-high 37 points to lead Detroit to a 98-96 road win against the struggling Indiana Pacers.If I see couple shots falling, everyone knows Im going to keep shooting, Jennings said. I was able to get into a rhythm and also find guys, so everything kind of worked out.Jennings made eight 3-pointers to tie his career high, but it was his missed layup that set up the win.With 23.9 seconds left and the score tied, Detroit (15-25) called a timeout. Jennings took the inbounds pass and held for the last shot. He drove to the bucket but missed. Andre Drummond was there for the tip-in with 0.3 seconds to go.We set it up for Brandon to get to his left hand and for me to really set myself up for an opportunity to tip the ball, Drummond said. Brandon did a good job of dragging Roy Hibbert out to try to block the shot. (Jennings) told me he was going to shoot it high so I put myself in the right position to get my hands on it.Drummond finished with a 16-point, 16-rebound night.The 6-foot-11 centre had struggled of late scoring just 7.2 points in the last five games, which led to a talk with Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy.I dont think my talk had anything to do with it, Van Gundy said. We talked, we showed (him) some things (on film). I had nothing to do with it.With Drummond and Greg Monroe, who finished with 11 points, finding success in the paint, Jennings took advantage of shooting opportunities. That was especially true in the pivotal third quarter, when he scored 19 of Detroits 30 points to give the Pistons a 79-76 lead heading to the final period.With just under six minutes to play in the third, Drummond converted the old-fashion 3-point play to start a 10-0 run that drew Detroit even with Indiana at 68. Jennings scored the other seven.It was the second consecutive game that the Pacers opposing point guard had season-best games. On Tuesday, Minnesotas Mo Williams scored 52.We played against some tough point guards, Hibbert said. Me, myself, has to do a better job of containing the guards and not letting a guy like Jennings get off.The centre led Indiana (15-26) with 14 points and had the opportunity to score the go-ahead bucket, but was called for the offensive foul to set up Detroit to have the ball with the shot clock turned off.Games have been like that for us lately, but were learning how to close them out, Jennings said. Were learning how to get stops at the end and were learning how to convert.TIP-INSPistons: Has won seven straight road games to tie the franchise record. ...They have won consecutive games over the Pacers for the first time since they won eight straight from January 2007-December 2008.Pacers: Despite losing four of five, bench play continues to be a positive.

Showing more spark after not taking enough challenging shots on goal in their 1-0 loss Friday night, the Bruins had 18 shots in the first period after managing just 25 in the entire opener. Luke Glendening cut Bostons lead to 2-1 at 13:20 of the second period before Milan Lucic scored late in the second and Zdeno Chara added a power-play goal early in the third.

Foye had a season-high 24 points and the Nuggets beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 101-88 Thursday night for their fourth win in a row after an eight-game losing streak. It was the second time in two games that Foye, who hit six 3-pointers, established a season high. He was coming off a 23-point effort in which he made seven 3s in Denvers victory over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday. "I think its from my preparation, just understanding that every single day, no matter if I make six 3s in a game or seven, that I have to come in the next day and be ready to work," said Foye, who had struggled to find the range from beyond the arc earlier this season. "You put yourself in situations, if you work and do the right things, so that when you get in a game, nothing is foreign to you." All that work on polishing his perimeter shot has been paying off. Foye has made 17 of 29 3-point attempts during Denvers winning streak. His latest effort helped the Nuggets overcome Kevin Durants 30 points as Denver beat the Thunder for the first time in three tries this season. The teams meet a final time in Oklahoma City on March 24. Quincy Miller, making his first career start, had nine points while playing in place of Wilson Chandler, who remains day to day after straining his left groin against Boston, the team said. "To beat a team like that, without Wilson and having young guys in there and not being that deep on the bench, was huge," Foye said. Evan Fournier had 19 points, including four 3-pointers, and Ty Lawson added 16 points and 14 assists for Denver. Kenneth Faried grabbed 14 rebounds. Fournier said he fed off Foyes offensive output and the up-tempo pace set by Lawson. "It gives you confidence, and the crowd was great tonight. The passing game was great," Fournieer said. Raphael Guerreiro Jersey. "I had a lot of wide-open shots that made the work a lot easier." Reggie Jackson scored 13 and Derek Fisher 12 for the Thunder. Serge Ibaka, who missed Tuesday nights 112-101 loss at Utah because of flu-like symptoms, had eight points and 10 rebounds in his return. "Tonight, we didnt get a lot of good looks offensively and we didnt move the ball well enough," Thunder coach Scott Brooks said. "We took a lot of tough shots and our timing wasnt where it needs to be and we missed a lot of 3s. "Everything that happened tonight is correctable, which is good. Its not that we had issues. The fact is, everything that we did wrong tonight we can go back and get better." The Thunder missed their first 10 shots from 3-point range before Jackson and Durant each connected from beyond the arc on successive possessions, pulling Oklahoma City to 72-59. Denver answered with several 3s over the next 6 minutes. Foye and Fournier hit two apiece, Lawson converted a three-point play and the Nuggets extended their lead to 89-66 by the end of the third quarter. Overall, the Nuggets outscored the Thunder 29-15 in the third to build a 23-point lead heading into the final period. Oklahoma City didnt make a significant dent in Denvers advantage the rest of the way. Despite getting 24 points from Durant in the first half, the Thunder trailed 60-51. After Durant made a pair of free throws to pull Oklahoma City to 50-47 with 2:22 left in the second quarter, the Nuggets closed with a 10-4 burst punctuated by Lawsons 3-pointer from the top of the key in the waning moments of the period. NOTES: Durant scored 30 or more points for the 19th time this season. ... The Thunder lost consecutive games for the third time this season. ... Lawson has had five consecutive double-doubles, the longest such streak of his career. ... Foye has scored in double figures in seven straight games.
