L2M: Dunn fouled Pistons' Bullock on last-second attempt to tie
Kris Dunn got away with one.
With Detroit down two in the dying seconds of Saturday's tilt against the Chicago Bulls, the Pistons actually managed to steal the ball and quickly head down the court with a chance to tie or even win the game. In transition, the ball ended up in the hands of Pistons forward Reggie Bullock, who went straight to the rim but was challenged in the air by Dunn - enough to throw off Bullock's attempt and preserve the Bulls' wild win.

According to the league's "Last Two Minute" report from the game, however, Dunn actually fouled Bullock on his drive.
"Dunn (CHI) makes contact to Bullock's (DET) arm that affects his driving shot attempt," the report reads.
Bullock didn't hold back postgame about the non-call, telling reporters Dunn illegally contested his attempt.
"I felt like I would've been taking a chance if I had tried to back-pass it to Tobias (Harris),” Bullock said, according to the Detroit News' Rod Beard. "I looked at the play multiple times - it's a foul. (Dunn) came down on my arm. It's a foul.
"(The officials) didn't look over it. We missed a lot of layups. I've got to finish those layups. But if you ask me my opinion, it's a foul."
