BOSTON -- Jaylen Brown, Derrick White and the Boston Celtics ended Detroit's winning streak at a franchise record-tying 13, outlasting Cade Cunningham and the Pistons 117-114 on Wednesday night.
The Eastern Conference-leading Pistons squandered a chance to break the record they share with the 1989-90 and 2003-04 championship teams. They are 15-3 two seasons after losing 28 in a row to break the NBA season record.
Brown had 33 points and 10 rebounds, and White scored 11 of his 27 points in the final 4½ minutes to help the Celtics overcome Cunningham's 42-point night.
