NBA ROUNDUP Thursday's games

Pistons 88, Pacers 83
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Rasheed Wallace scored 11 of his game-high 28 points in a key fourth-quarter surge to lift Detroit over Indiana. With Detroit leading 70-64 early in the fourth, Wallace hit four straight shots -- three from 3-point range -- in 97 seconds to put the game away. The win was Detroit's first at home against Indiana since April 4, 2004. Indiana won both meetings at the Palace last year -- the first ended early by the infamous brawl and the second delayed by a bomb threat aimed at the Pacers locker room. Stephen Jackson led the Pacers with 15 points.
Mavericks 97, Grizzlies 87
DALLAS -- Dirk Nowitzki had 31 points and Jason Terry scored 23, with the duo sparking the two key runs that pushed Dallas to its franchise-record 13th straight win at home. Memphis had won four straight since a season-worst five-game losing streak that started the month.
