PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Rodney Stuckey scored 27 points and hit the winner with 8.7 seconds left to lead the Detroit Pistons to a 90-86 win over Philadelphia on Wednesday, the 76ers' 11th straight loss.

Allen Iverson scored 11 points in his second game with the Sixers. He hit the tying jumper with 1:06 left that made it 86-86.

Stuckey had the ball stripped by Andre Iguodala, but he grabbed the loose ball and tossed it in for the go-ahead basket with 1 second left on the shot clock. Iguodala went for the win, but his 3-point attempt was no good.

He scored 18 points.

Hawks 118, Bulls 83
At Atlanta, Jamal Crawford scored a season-high 29 points as Atlanta opened the second half with a 20-4 run.

The Bulls, who have lost four straight and nine of 10, remained close only in the first period. Atlanta pushed its lead to double digits for good on a jam by Josh Smith with 5:17 remaining in the first half.

Smith had 18 points, including an alley-oop jam.

Derrick Rose led Chicago with 19 points. James Johnson had 17 – all in the final period – and John Salmons added 16.

Warriors 105, Nets 89
At East Rutherford, New Jersey, Monta Ellis scored 14 of his 18 points in the second half as Golden State snapped a four-game losing streak.

Reserve C.J. Watson also scored 18 and former Nets center Mikki Moore had 16 on a series of dunks for the Warriors.

Brook Lopez had 21 points and 10 rebounds for the Nets, who were bidding for wins on consecutive nights after winning just once in their first 20 games. Devin Harris added 19 points but shot only 4 of 11, while Courtney Lee scored 15.

Trail Blazers 102, Pacers 91
At Indianapolis, Brandon Roy scored 29 points to lead Portland over the Pacers.

LaMarcus Aldridge had 20 points and eight rebounds, and Andre Miller scored 15 for the Trail Blazers (14-9), who snapped a four-game road losing streak.
