ORLANDO, Fla.(AP) Rashard Lewis hit a 12-foot jumper as time expired to lift the Orlando Magic to a 102-100 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Monday night.

 

Hedo Turkoglu had 26 points and eight assists and Dwight Howard added 23 points and eight rebounds. The Magic had lost nine straight to Detroit, including four games that knocked them out of last year's playoffs.

 

Chauncey Billups nearly forced overtime with a 32-foot 3-pointer that made it 100-all, but Orlando had 3.6 seconds left.

 

Lewis, who scored 16, took the inbound pass from Turkoglu, dribbled and threw up the shot with time expiring. A replay confirmed the bucket, and Orlando's emotional win.

 

Six Pistons scored in double figures, led by Richard Hamilton with 21 and Tayshaun Prince with 20. Billups scored 18, while Rasheed Wallace had 15 points and 15 rebounds.

 

Wallace nearly tied the game at 100 with 36 seconds left, but his 27-foot 3-pointer rimmed in and then out.

 

Detroit was 18-0 when scoring at least 100 points this season
