DETROIT (AP) — Domantas Sabonis scored 37 points, and had 13 assists and 10 rebounds to help the Sacramento Kings to a roller coaster 131 110 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday. The Kings trailed by 20 points in the first quarter, led by 15 in the third, let the Pistons tie the game in the fourth and then pulled away down the stretch.
Keegan Murray added 32 points and De’Aaron Fox scored 26. Detroit (3 34) has lost five straight since breaking its NBA record 28 game losing streak. Bojan Bogdanovic scored 26 and Jaden Ivey added 22. The Pistons played without Cade Cunningham, who will be out at least 7 10 days with a knee sprain.
The Kings were coming off to the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday. KNICKS 112, TRAIL BLAZERS 84 NEW YORK (AP) — OG Anunoby scored 23 points, his most since coming to New York, and the Knicks won their fifth in a row since he joined their lineup with a victory over the Trail Blazers. Anunoby scored 16 in a first quarter, when the Knicks opened a 19 point lead that would grow to 39 in the third quarter.
The forward went 6 for 7 in the period, 4 of 5 behind the 3 point arc, and was already just a point shy of the 17 he scored in his Knicks debut against Minnesota on New Year’s Day, his previous best since coming from Toronto in a Dec. 30 trade. He might have approached his season high of 29, also at Madison Square Garden while playing for the Raptors last month, but the starters didn’t need to play much in the second half.
Jerami Grant scored 21 points for the Trail Blazers, who lost for the fourth time in five games. TIMBERWOLVES 113, MAGIC 92 ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Karl Anthony Towns scored 23 of his 28 points in the first half and the Timberwolves led from start to finish in a win over the Magic. Rudy Gobert had 21 points and 12 rebounds and the Western Conference leading Timberwolves (26 10) won easily despite getting only six points and three assists from leading scorer Anthony Edwards.
Moritz Wagner led the Magic (21 16) with 21 points and seven rebounds. Jalen Suggs had 20 points and five rebounds and Paolo Banchero had 18 points on 8 for 22 shooting. ___ AP NBA:.
