AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Feb. 16 (UPI) -- Ben Gordon scored the first four points of overtime Wednesday and the Detroit Pistons did not trail again in fighting off Indiana 115-109.

Indiana's Darren Collision forced the extra period by making a layup with 14 seconds left in regulation, but the Pacers went 1-of-6 during overtime while suffering its second straight loss.

Tayshaun Prince led Detroit with 25 points and 11 rebounds to help the Pistons halt a three-game skid. Rodney Stuckey added 18 points and Gordon had 16.

Roy Hibbert led Indiana by equaling his career best performance with 29 points, Danny Granger had 28 for the Pacers.

Both sides hit 50 percent from the field, but Detroit committed just eight turnovers to 15 for Indiana.
