Nets beat Pistons 124-121

Brooklyn Nets overcame a 17-point halftime deficit to beat Detroit Pistons 124-121 on Sunday, all thanks to the contributions of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. Durant hit 43 points, including a career-high 26 in the third quarter. 

Bojan Bogdanovic led Detroit with 26 points. Durant had eight treys, seven free-throw attempts, and eight points in the third as Brooklyn outscored Detroit 26-25. His turnover, leading to a Bogdanovic three-pointer that cut the Nets' lead to 120-119 with 40 seconds left, resulted in a Bogdanovic three that cut Brooklyn's lead to 120-119 with 29 seconds remaining. With the Pistons down one, Alec Burks made a layup before fouling Durant, who made both free throws to maintain the one-point edge. Durant made his next two shots to keep the margin at three.
