Kings beat Pistons to boost post-season hopes
The Sacramento Kings boosted their NBA post-season hopes with a 127-117 win at the Detroit Pistons.
Zach LaVine scored 43 points and DeMar DeRozan 37 for the Kings, who came from 18 points down to secure a third successive victory.
They remain ninth in the Western Conference, one win ahead of the Dallas Mavericks.
Teams finishing from seventh to 10th qualify for the play-in tournament, which runs from 15-18 April.
The only side who can deny the Kings are the 11th-placed Phoenix Suns, who have three fewer wins with four regular-season games remaining.
The Miami Heat, assured of a play-in place in the East, won 117-105 at home against the already eliminated Philadelphia 76ers, who suffered a 12th successive defeat.
