You could say Anthony Tolliver is just getting better with age. The 32-year-old Detroit Pistons forward put up 25 points on a career-high 6 three-pointers Saturday night in a 117-95 win over the Bulls.

The 2003 Kickapoo grad was ultra-efficient, playing just 25 minutes, adding six rebounds.
Tolliver, undrafted from Creighton, is in his 11th NBA season, playing for nine different teams, including two different stints with the Pistons. Best known as a long-range shooter off the bench, Tolliver stole the show in this one, earning some praise from his younger, “immature” teammates.
