Jalen Duren had a career high 33 points and also pulled down 10 rebounds, Cade Cunningham added 21 points with 18 assists and the Detroit Pistons pulled away in the fourth quarter to beat the Dallas Mavericks 122-110 in Mexico City on Saturday night.

Duncan Robinson added 18 points and Ausar Thompson had 15 for the Pistons, who won their second game in a row.

“I just wanted to get the win, coach had a great game plan and my teammates found me and the rest is history,” said Duren.

Cunningham’s 18 assists were a career high. D’Angelo Russell came off the bench to score 31 points while first overall pick Cooper Flagg scored a season high 16 points on 3-for-14 shooting for the Mavericks.
