Hawks Snap Pistons' 4-Game Winning Streak with 130-129 Win in Overtime

  • On Wednesday, CJ McCollum's tiebreaking three-point play in overtime lifted the Atlanta Hawks past the Detroit Pistons 130-129 at Little Caesars Arena, snapping Detroit's four-game winning streak.
  • The Hawks entered Detroit as the Eastern Conference's hottest team with a 15-2 record since the All-Star break, while the Pistons maintained an 8-2 mark without All-Star guard Cade Cunningham, sidelined by a collapsed left lung.
  • Atlanta built a 21-point halftime lead before Detroit erased the deficit with a 16-0 third-quarter run; Jalen Johnson and McCollum each scored 27 points to lead their respective teams.
  • Pistons coach J.B. Bickerstaff praised his team's resilience despite the loss, stating, "Most guys, most teams don't even have the fortitude to dig down," after Tobias Harris and Jalen Duren missed late-game clinching attempts.
  • Fighting to cement a top-six Eastern Conference finish and avoid the play-in, the Hawks visit Boston on Friday, while the Pistons host New Orleans on Thursday to rebound from their 20th loss.
