Pistons 117, Bobcats 116, 2 OT
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Tayshaun Prince's dunk with 16.5 seconds remaining lifted Detroit to a double overtime victory against Charlotte in the Pistons' first game since their brawl with Indiana. The Pistons finished the game with just five players because three fouled out and four were suspended for their roles in the melee two days earlier. Charlotte had chances to be the first expansion team to beat a defending champion since Portland beat the New York Knicks during the 1969-70 season -- and to win its first road game. Detroit's Richard Hamilton set a team record for most free throws made in a game without missing by going 20-for-20 and tied a Pistons mark for successful free throws. He scored 30 points before fouling out late in regulation. Antonio McDyess scored 24 and Rasheed Wallace had 13 before he also fouled out. Charlotte's Jason Kapono scored a career-high 25 points before fouling out in the second overtime. Primoz Brezec scored a career-high 22 for the Bobcats, and Steve Smith added 22.
