Chauncey Billups scored 28 points and Richard Hamilton added 22 to give the Detroit Pistons a 94-89 win over the Orlando Magic on Friday night.
It was the second time in three nights Detroit beat Orlando after a 110-88 victory on Wednesday. This time Orlando had a chance, but collapsed in the fourth quarter.
The Magic didn’t score a field goal for the first 10:30 of the final period, squandering a 71-67 lead. When Grant Hill finally broke the slump with a jumper, Detroit was up 87-81 with just 1:21 to play. The Pistons broke away with a 9-1 run in a 3:04 stretch in which Billups scored five.
