After Sluggish Start, Nets Storm Back With 87-83 Win Over Pistons

NEW YORK -- Forward Thaddeus Young scored 19 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, leading the Brooklyn Nets to a sluggish, come-from-behind 87-83 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Sunday night at the Barclays Center.

Nets center Brook Lopez shook off a horrid start to score 15 points, including one clutch free throw with 29.8 seconds left.

The win was just the third in the last nine games for the Nets (4-13) and snapped a three-game losing streak. The Pistons (8-9) lost their second game in a row.

Brooklyn trailed for most of the game but came storming back in the fourth quarter, erasing a 10-point deficit in the process.
