Blake Griffin scored a career-high 50 points and had the game-winner after he was fouled on a driving layup with 1.8 seconds left as Detroit topped Philadelph­ia 133-132 in a wild overtime thriller on Tuesday night.

JJ Redick’s four-point play with 5.6 seconds left in overtime set up Griffin’s dramatics, while Joel Embiid, who had 33 points and 11 rebounds, missed a potential game-winner at the buzzer. Redick had 30 points and scored a 3-pointer while being fouled by Reggie Jackson.
