The Philadelphia 76ers (2 - 18) defeated the Detroit Pistons (3 - 17) 108 - 101 in overtime on Saturday. Philadelphia dropped their first 17 games of the season, but over their last three games, they hit a light part of their schedule and have secured two wins. The recently - signed Robert Covington scored a game - high 25 points in 29 minutes off the bench, putting up a nice game on the back of his 21 - point performance against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday. Michael Carter-Williams finished two rebounds shy of collecting his second triple - double of the season, finishing with 20 points, eight rebounds and 16 assists. The Sixers will continue their road trip against the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday, and they might get backup point guard Tony Wroten (knee) back after he missed the last four games. Detroit is on an 11 - game losing streak, and they continue to sputter on offense. They could n't buy a bucket against the Sixers, shooting 39 percent from the field and 26 percent from beyond the three - point line. Kyle Singler, the current starter at small forward, tied his season - high with 21 points in 40 minutes. The Pistons will host the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday to finish off their back - to - back set.
