Atlanta Hawks center Dewayne Dedmon scored two of his 20 points on Sunday with a quick shot in the paint in the final two minutes of the Hawks' 118-115 win over the Detroit Pistons.

Dedmon, who recorded a defensive rebound on the Pistons’ prior possession, recorded an offensive rebound between two Pistons players after Andre Drummond blocked a layup attempt by Dennis Schroder with 1:34 left in the game.

As soon as Dedmon grabbed the ball, the 7-footer sank a shot, giving the Hawks a 108-107 lead. Dedmon also was fouled on the play and made a free-throw attempt.

In addition to recording his career high of 20 points, Dedmon also totaled 13 rebounds, 3 steals and a block.
