DETROIT _ Bruce Brown said he wanted another crack at Trae Young.
When presented with the opportunity Friday night, the Detroit Pistons second-year guard stunned by outplaying the Atlanta Hawks' young star.
Brown outscored his 2017 draft classmate and a 3-point barrage helped the Pistons snap a five-game losing streak with a 128-103 victory at Little Caesars Arena.
The Pistons (5-10) were 17 for 34 from 3-point range and after trailing by 10 early, took control with a 20-0 run to roar to a 76-57 lead at halftime, easily the best output for a half this season.
Young torched the Pistons for 38 points in the Hawks' blowout victory at LCA in the second game of the season, toying with Brown.
But Young only managed nine points as Brown received help who hedged out on Young after screens.
And Brown, a non-scorer, scored 14 points and added nine assists, three steals and a blocked shot in 33 minutes.
Andre Drummond scored 23 points, grabbed 15 rebounds and didn't play in the fourth quarter.
Blake Griffin had his best game of the season with 24 points on 9-for-16 shooting.
Seven Pistons scored in double figures as the Pistons had 30 assists on 42 made baskets.
The Pistons were without starting small forward Tony Snell (left hip strain) for the second straight game.
Langston Galloway started in his place again, finishing with 12 points, his 11th game in a row scoring in double figures.
The Hawks (4-11) were without Kevin Huerta (rotator cuff strain), Cam Reddish (left wrist sprain) and John Collins (league suspension).
Although Griffin's final stat line was good, he struggled in the first half when he was 2 for 7 from the field, 1 for 5 from 3-point range.
He's struggled with turnovers and an early one led to a Hawks transition basket.
But he did show more patience, surveying the offense for openings, instead of forcing the action.
He was able to get to the line, going 4 for 4, and helped promote ball movement, which led to several hockey assists.
He moved a little better after laboring in Wednesday night's loss at the Chicago Bulls.
