Kevin Durant scored a season-high 51 points as the visiting Brooklyn Nets earned a 116–104 victory Sunday, while handing the Detroit Pistons their 12th consecutive defeat.
Durant’s point total set a Little Caesars Arena record. Ex-Pistons forward Blake Griffin, who currently plays for the Nets, held the previous record with 50 points. Durant added nine assists and seven rebounds as the Nets won for the third time in their last four games.
