SAN FRANCISCO (AP) \u2014 Cade Cunningham<\/a> had 29 points and 11 assists and the Detroit Pistons<\/a> jumped to a big lead early before holding off the Golden State Warriors<\/a> for a 131-124 win Friday night.<\/p>\n

Stephen Curry<\/a> scored 23 points for his fourth straight 20-point performance before exiting with right knee soreness. Draymond Green<\/a> had 15 points, seven assists, seven rebounds and his 10th technical. <\/p>\n

Gui Santos<\/a>\u2019 3-pointer with 6:56 remaining pulled the Warriors within 117-112 and Buddy Hield<\/a>\u2019s layup at 6:19 made it a three-point game. Santos matched his season high with 16 points.<\/p>\n

The Pistons\u2019 77 first-half points were the most allowed by Golden State in any half this season. But the Warriors rallied back in their typical third-quarter fashion to cut a 20-point deficit to single digits \u2014 yet 18 turnovers proved costly leading to 31 points for the Pistons.<\/p>\n

Jalen Duren<\/a> had 21 points and 13 rebounds and Duncan Robinson<\/a> added 15 points as Detroit completed a road back-to-back. The Pistons shot 76% (19 of 25) in the opening quarter. They have won seven of nine after a 114-96 defeat Thursday at Phoenix.<\/p>\n

Curry, regularly smothered and held by Ausar Thompson<\/a>, shot 7 for 16 over three quarters as the Warriors returned from a four-game road trip that would have been five but for a postponement in Minneapolis on Jan. 24.<\/p>\n

Golden State coach Steve Kerr said center Al Horford<\/a> will remain a starter for the Warriors \u2014 this was his fourth start \u2014 and the big man had 13 points and seven rebounds.<\/p>\n

Just 55 seconds into the game, Green fell into the courtside seats along a sideline \u2014 coming back to fist bump everybody he\u2019d fallen upon.<\/p>\n

Green reached 8,000 career points midway through the first quarter, and moved past Joe Fulks (8,003) for 16th place on the franchise all-time scoring list. He also joined Curry and Klay Thompson<\/a> as the only Warriors with 800 or more 3-pointers.<\/p>\n
