AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Jan. 15 (UPI) -- Rodney Stuckey got hot down the stretch Saturday, scoring eight points in the final 4:37 to rally the Detroit Pistons to a 110-106 win over Sacramento.

Stuckey finished with 19 points, right behind Tayshaun Prince, who led the way with 21 points and six rebounds. Will Bynum, Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva also were in double figures.

Detroit has now won two straight after losing two.

Tyreke Evans had 11 assists and five rebounds to go with his game-high 25 points for Sacramento, which has dropped four of five. Jason Thompson added 22 points and DeMarcus Cousins had 14 for the Kings, who led this one 36-27 after the first period and 70-59 at halftime before going cold in the third quarter when they shot just 26.3 percent from the floor.

Sacramento led 91-90 lead with 6:12 to play but the Pistons went on a 14-5 surge that started with a Villanueva hook shot.
