Pistons vs. Suns final score: Jerami Grant leads Detroit past Suns in overtime thriller

The Detroit Pistons defeated the Phoenix Suns 110-105 in overtime Friday evening behind an impressive all-around team effort.

Though, the night did not begin nicely.

The Suns controlled most of the first half and led by as many as 23. However, hope never faded as the Pistons slowly chipped away during the last portion of the second quarter and cut it to eight at half time. The Pistons switched to a 2-3 zone in the second quarter and it knocked the Suns off their rhythm and pace.

The Suns bench scored 29 in the opening half and their guards effectively harassed Derrick Rose and the Pistons.
