AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Around the basket and on the perimeter, the Detroit Pistons were too big for the New Jersey Nets.

 

Rookie Greg Monroe scored a career-high 20 points and added 11 rebounds, and the Pistons snapped a four-game losing streak with a 92-82 victory over the Nets on Friday night. Tayshaun Prince added 22 points and Tracy McGrady scored 16 for Detroit, which led by 13 early in the third quarter after beginning the second half on a 14-5 run.

 

New Jersey had difficulty matching up with the 6-foot-9 Prince and the 6-8 McGrady, and the 6-foot-11 Monroe finished with his sixth double-double.

 

"He's such a refreshing player to be around," Pistons coach John Kuester said. "It's pretty impressive to see him continue to grow."

 

Anthony Morrow scored 22 points for New Jersey, which lost its 12th straight road game and dropped to 3-24 away from home on the season. Brook Lopez scored 16 but was outplayed by Monroe.
