Blake Griffin scored 27 points, including 16 in the fourth quarter, as the Detroit Pistons erased a 21-point deficit to take down the Chicago Bulls.
Griffin shot 9-of-15, including 3-of-9 from three-point range and received support from Andre Drummond - who recorded his 11th 20-20 game this season with 20 points and 24 rebounds - as the Pistons won for the 11th time in 13 games.
The Pistons had battled back to within eight points at the start of the fourth quarter. Then Griffin took over.
He opened the period with a three-pointer from the top of the key then made a running lay-up with 5:19 remaining.
Griffin's reverse lay-up earned the Pistons a 100-93 lead with 3:41 to go. The former Clipper then added a put-back lay-up with 1:57 left before icing the game with a turnaround fadeaway jumper as the game entered its final minute.
