Blake Griffin led the Pistons with 24 points against his former team, but connected on just 5-of-17 shots over the last 3 quarters.
He made just 3-of-12 from three-point range.
The Clippers reserves outscored the Pistons bench, 80-17, as the Clippers posted the biggest comeback in team history.
“We just stayed the course,” Williams said. “We didn’t play our best basketball in the first half. We played our style the second half and gave ourselves an opportunity to win the game.”
The Clippers held on to the 8th spot in the West with a 29-24 record, while the Pistons slipped to 22-29 in the East for the 9th spot.
