Pistons 105, Bucks 100:
Charlie Villanueva hit a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 9.6 seconds left to lift visiting Detroit past Milwaukee.

Jose Calderon had 23 points and 10 assists and Greg Monroe had 14 points and 13 rebounds - his sixth straight double-double - for the Pistons, who ended San Antonio's 11-game winning streak in impressive fashion Friday night. Rodney Stuckey chipped in 19 points and Villanueva had 18 off the bench.

Brandon Jennings led the Bucks with 26 points. Samuel Dalembert added 14 points and 12 rebounds and Ersan Ilyasova contributed 15 points and 10 boards for Milwaukee.

There were five ties in the final four minutes, the last coming when Calderon answered Jennings' basket to knot it at 100 with 41 seconds left. Jennings missed on the other end, Villanueva hit his fourth 3 of the game and Jennings was off on a wild attempt before Stuckey hit two free throws for the final margin.

The Pistons lost an early 13-point lead and trailed 72-62 midway through the third. A Calderon 3-pointer ended a 10-0 Milwaukee run and began another for Detroit, which took a 91-88 lead on Monroe's basket with 5:41 to go.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Milwaukee played its second straight game without center Larry Sanders (back), the league's leading shot-blocker. ... Villanueva had a season-high 21 points against the Spurs on Friday. He was 9-for-16 from 3-point range during the back-to-back set. ... Detroit won the season series 3-1.
