LeBron James’ triple-double helps Cavaliers beat Pistons

Cleveland 113, at Detroit 101: LeBron James had 29 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists, his fourth triple-double of the season, and the Cavaliers surged late for their fourth consecutive win and 10th in 11 games. The Pistons have dropped lost three straight and eight of 10.

at Indiana 99, Charlotte 94: Danny Granger scored 26 points to help the Pacers deny the Bobcats a franchise-record seventh consecutive victory. Indiana had lost 14 of its previous 17 games.

San Antonio 88, at Miami 76: Manu Ginobili scored 22 points, George Hill had 16 and the surging Spurs won despite wasting most of a 25-point, third-quarter lead. San Antonio, seventh in the West, has won eight of nine.

Atlanta 108, at New Jersey 84: Jamal Crawford hit a 30-footer at the buzzer to cap his game-breaking, 15-point second quarter and the Hawks ran away from the woeful Nets despite the absence of All-Star guard Joe Johnson, who has Achilles’ tendinitis.

at Memphis 104, Chicago 97: O.J. Mayo scored 24 points, going four for five from three-point range, and the Grizzlies sent the undermanned Bulls to their eighth straight loss.

at Denver 97, Washington 87: J.R. Smith scored 13 of his 17 points in the fourth quarter, helping the Nuggets pull away. The Wizards, who surprisingly led at halftime, lost their ninth straight.
