Detroit Pistons at Washington Wizards
· National Basketball AssociationCunningham's 4th triple-double of the season lifts the Pistons to a 124-104 rout of Washington
Jaden Ivey scored 28 points and Malik Beasley added 26 for Detroit. Cunningham has four triple-doubles this season, two behind league leader Nikola Jokic.
It was the eighth straight loss for Washington, which was home after a five-game trip. Jordan Poole and Kyle Kuzma scored 22 points apiece for the Wizards.
Detroit held Washington to 18 points in the first quarter and led 65-53 at halftime. The lead was never in single digits after that, with the Pistons going on a 12-3 run to take an 85-64 advantage on a dunk by Jalen Duren.
Wizards center Alex Sarr, the No. 2 pick in this year's draft, had four points on 1-of-7 shooting.
Wizards: This skid could go on a while for Washington, which faces New York and Boston in its next two games. The Wizards ended up shooting well (12 of 27) from 3-point range, but couldn't recover from their ragged first quarter.
