Knicks piece together Pistons in Detroit”/>
It took only a quarter for Jalen Brunson (36 points) and the Knicks to stun the Pistons (13-39) and win their second consecutive game. Still weighed down by turnovers, Detroit’s players quickly became demoralized, and even the good work of Simone Fontecchio, who came off the bench with 12 points (5/7 shooting with 2 triples) and 4 rebounds in 20 minutes, was not enough to attempt a recovery.
Detroit – New York 98-128. Boxscore: 22 Cunningham, 13 Harris, 12 Fontecchio, 10 Ivey per i Pistons; 36 Brunson, 21p+11r Towns, 21 Anunoby, 15 Bridges, 13 Hart, 10 McBride per i Knicks.
