The Detroit Pistons defeated the Charlotte Hornets 114 - 108 Thursday in overtime at the Palace in Auburn Hills . The Hornets ( 24 - 33 ) actually held the lead for majority of Thursday 's contest , as they entered halftime with a 12 - point lead and the fourth quarter with a 15 - point lead . But a big run from the Pistons ( 28 - 30 ) in the final period , which included some great back - and - forth between Kemba Walker and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope in the closing moments , ultimately forced the game into overtime . From there , it was all Detroit as Caldwell-Pope carried them through the final five minutes . Caldwell-Pope hit seven three - pointers en route to scoring a game - high 33 points and grabbing nine rebounds in 43 minutes . Detroit also got yet another great performance off the bench from Tobias Harris , who scored 25 points on 9 - of - 17 shooting from the field in 37 minutes as a reserve . Walker did everything he could for the Hornets in the closing moments , matching every punch Caldwell-Pope threw at him and his team . He finished with a game - high 34 points , seven rebounds and six assists in 42 minutes , but unfortunately for Charlotte , it was n't enough . The loss results in the fifth straight loss for the Hornets and their 12th loss in their last 13 games . Every starter for Charlotte managed to score in double figures Thursday , but the team 's bench unit continues to be a problem for this team , as the four players who saw minutes off the bench scored just 14 points on 6 - of - 21 shooting from the field . Up next , the Pistons will remain home Sunday to take on the Celtics , while the Hornets will look to end their losing streak Saturday against the Kings . Both Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Kemba Walker were having a rough time playing in the month of February , with the two combining for six games of single - digit scoring before Thursday night . That all changed in Thursday 's contest , however , as the two combined to to score the final six baskets of regulation en route to each having their best performances in weeks . Walker finished with a game - high 34 points in 42 minutes . It was just his third time in the last nine games where he has scored at least 20 points and his first time scoring 30 points since Jan. 27 . As for Caldwell-Pope , who ended up leading Detroit 's comeback in the fourth quarter , he scored a team - high 33 points Thursday .
