THUNDER 96, PISTONS 84

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) _ Kevin Durant scored 28 points, Russell Westbrook added 22 points and 11 rebounds, and Oklahoma City beat lowly Detroit.

The Pistons have lost 12 straight, two short of the franchise record. Detroit’s last win came on Nov. 14 in overtime at Oklahoma City, a game that both Durant and Westbrook missed due to injury.

Serge Ibaka added 13 points and 13 rebounds for the Thunder, while Kentavious Caldwell-Pope led Detroit with 19 points.

(Previous versions of this story incorrectly said that Anthony Davis overtook Kobe Bryant for the NBA scoring lead. Bryant is slightly ahead.)
