Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (foot) available Monday vs. Indiana
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 12:48 PM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (foot) is available for Monday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: LeVert is good to go after being considered probable with a sore left foot. He'll provide additional perimeter depth off the bench, but the minutes needed to impact fantasy basketball aren't likely to be available. |

Jaden Ivey Jaden Ivey (conditioning) available Monday
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 12:42 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jaden Ivey (conditioning) is available for Monday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Ivey will make his second appearance of the season on Monday. After logging 14 minutes in his debut on Saturday, the Pistons guard will likely take on a similar workload against the Pacers. Due to the minutes restriction, Ivey is not a must-roster player at this point. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (foot) probable Monday vs. Indiana
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 12:33 PM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (foot) is probable for Monday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: LeVert is dealing with a sore left foot, but the probable tag suggests he will be available to provide depth off the bench. He has not had a significant impact on fantasy basketball this season, and that will remain the case with Jaden Ivey back in action. There isn't much to be gained from rostering LeVert in most leagues. |

Bobi Klintman Bobi Klintman (ankle) out Monday vs. Indiana
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 12:23 PM
NBA Injury Report
Bobi Klintman (ankle) is out for Monday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Monday's game will be the fourth in which Klintman has been inactive. The second-year forward is not in the rotation when healthy, especially with the Pistons now having their full complement of frontcourt players. |

Jaden Ivey Jaden Ivey (conditioning) probable Monday
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 11:52 AM
NBA Injury Report
Jaden Ivey (conditioning) is probable for Monday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Ivey made his season debut on Saturday, playing 14 minutes off the bench in a win over the Bucks. Fantasy managers should expect a similar approach on Monday, as Ivey had not appeared in a game since New Year's Day due to a fractured fibula. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren scores 17 points in win over Bucks
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 4:33 PM
Jalen Duren amassed 19 points (7-of-10 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), six rebounds, and five assists in Saturday's win over the Bucks.
Analysis: With the Pistons adding Tobias Harris and Jaden Ivey to the mix on Saturday, Duren missed out on a few minutes despite not sharing a position with either of those two. He played 27 minutes against the Bucks, two fewer than his tally in each of the prior two games and his season average. However, Duren still provided solid statistical value, so fantasy managers have nothing to worry about. With Isaiah Stewart playing more of his minutes at the five, Paul Reed (two points and one rebound) only played five minutes on Saturday. There's no need to hold onto Reed with the Pistons this close to whole. |

Jaden Ivey Jaden Ivey (knee) plays 14 minutes in season debut
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 4:33 PM
Jaden Ivey (knee) accounted for 10 points (4-of-6 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), one rebound, two assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Saturday's win over the Bucks.
Analysis: For the first time since suffering a fractured fibula on New Year's Day, Ivey was playing in an official NBA game. While he was not inserted into the starting lineup immediately, as Tobias Harris (ankle) was, that was unsurprising given the time missed. Ivey played 14 minutes and was relatively effective in those moments, shooting 66.7 percent from the field and hitting double figures. His return impacts Daniss Jenkins (7/1/3/1 with one three-pointer) more than any other Pistons guard, with the second-year guard playing 13 minutes. While the Pistons do end Week 6 with a back-to-back, Ivey's return makes Jenkins surplus to requirements in most fantasy leagues. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris (ankle) plays 22 minutes in return
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 4:32 PM
Tobias Harris (ankle) finished Saturday's win over the Bucks with 16 points (6-of-8 FGs, 1-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, four assists, one block and three three-pointers.
Analysis: Saturday's game was the first for Harris in three weeks, and he was inserted into the starting lineup immediately. The veteran forward looked relatively sharp, with the time off and the game being a blowout likely factoring into his playing time. Isaiah Stewart, who started at the four in Harris's absence, played 23 minutes off the bench, finishing with seven points, two rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one three-pointer. Beef Stew can still provide tangible fantasy value, but his ceiling is a lot lower with Harris in the lineup. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham drops 29 points, 10 assists
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 4:32 PM
Cade Cunningham tallied 29 points (10-of-18 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), eight rebounds, 10 assists, one steal, one block and three three-pointers in Saturday's win over the Bucks.
Analysis: The Pistons entered Saturday's game having lost their last 13 meeting with the Bucks, and ending that streak was a point of emphasis for Cunningham and company. They got the job done, and the point guard led the way to extend Detroit's win streak to 12. He was highly efficient, shooting over 50 percent from the field and finishing two rebounds shy of a triple-double. Cunningham and the Pistons play four games during Week 6, starting with the Pacers on Monday. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris (ankle) available, will start
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 1:37 PM
NBA Injury Report
Tobias Harris (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Saturday's game will be the first for Harris since November 1, when he sprained his ankle during a win over the Mavericks. Isaiah Stewart has filled in admirably at the power forward position, but he's headed to the bench. Harris' return also impacts Paul Reed, who may fall out of the rotation entirely. Joining Harris in the starting lineup are Cade Cunningham, Duncan Robinson, Ausar Thompson and Jalen Duren. |

Jaden Ivey Jaden Ivey (knee) to make season debut Saturday
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 1:32 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jaden Ivey (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Ivey, who hasn't appeared in a game since New Year's Day, will be available for Saturday's game. Given the time missed, his minutes will likely be limited. Slotting Ivey into fantasy lineups immediately isn't necessary, but he'll be a valuable perimeter option once the Pistons sort out what is now a crowded rotation. |
|
Bobi Klintman Bobi Klintman (ankle) out Saturday vs. Milwaukee
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 12:45 PM
NBA Injury Report
Bobi Klintman (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Klintman will be inactive for a third straight game. His absence will not impact fantasy basketball or the Pistons' rotation, especially with Tobias Harris possibly being available for the first time since November 1. |
|
Jaden Ivey Jaden Ivey (knee) questionable Saturday vs. Bucks
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 12:41 PM
Jaden Ivey (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Ivey missed the first 15 games of the season after having surgery on his right knee. The 23-year-old shooting guard doesn't have a set return date and only began on-court work last week, but being listed on the injury report as questionable certainly represents progress in his recovery. Even if he is active on Saturday, Ivey would likely be on a minutes limit. |
|
Tobias Harris Tobias Harris (ankle) questionable Saturday
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 12:38 PM
NBA Injury Report
Tobias Harris (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Sidelined since November 1, Harris is questionable for Saturday's game. However, he was also questionable for Tuesday's game against the Hawks but did not play. If he can play against the Bucks, Harris' availability affects Isaiah Stewart, who has been filling in as the starting power forward. Regardless of what happens, fantasy managers should continue to roster Stewart in deeper leagues and some 12-team formats as well. |

Cade Cunningham Cade tallies 25/6/10/2, Pistons win 11th straight
Tue, Nov 18, 2025, 5:17 PM
Cade Cunningham led the Pistons with 25 points (10-of-23 FGs), six rebounds, 10 assists, two steals and one three-pointer in a 120-112 win over the Hawks on Tuesday.
Analysis: Cunningham returned after missing Detroit's last three games, and he made his presence felt immediately. With the Pistons leading by just two points with 90 seconds left, Cade hit back-to-back tough shots to extend the lead and secure the win, which was their 11th in a row. His shooting percentage is down, but he is averaging career-highs in points, assists and steals per game this season. It has been a team effort to sit atop the Eastern Conference early on, but when the game comes down to the wire, it's clear it's Cunningham's team. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren pours in 24/8/3/2/1 line vs. Atlanta
Tue, Nov 18, 2025, 5:06 PM
Jalen Duren lit up the Hawks with 24 points (8-of-12 FGs, 8-of-11 FTs), eight rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block on Tuesday.
Analysis: Duren's double-double streak came to an end, but he was still able to make a big impact as a scorer, as he has all month. In November, he has scored at least 20 points in six of his eight appearances, with three 30-point performances included. He's averaging career-highs in points and rebounds, which has led to a dominant fantasy season from him to this point. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris (ankle) downgraded to out Tuesday
Tue, Nov 18, 2025, 12:42 PM
NBA Injury Report
Tobias Harris (ankle) is out for Tuesday's game against the Hawks.
Analysis: Harris has not appeared in a game since November 1, and that will not change on Tuesday. The good news for Detroit is that Cade Cunningham and Ausar Thompson are available. Isaiah Stewart has served as the starting power forward recently and should retain that role until Harris returns. |
|
Ausar Thompson Ausar Thompson (ankle) available to play vs. Hawks
Tue, Nov 18, 2025, 12:39 PM
Jason Anderson
Ausar Thompson (ankle) is available to play against the Hawks on Tuesday.
Analysis: Thompson will be back after missing Detroit's last four games. Ron Holland should be pushed back to the bench with Ausar back, though with Tobias Harris still sidelined, Holland should play a significant role off the bench. |
|
Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (hip) available Tuesday vs. ATL
Tue, Nov 18, 2025, 12:36 PM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (hip) is available for Tuesday's game against the Hawks.
Analysis: Cunningham is back after a three-game absence, giving the Pistons a welcome boost on the perimeter. His return means Daniss Jenkins will come off the bench, but the second-year guard isn't an automatic drop just yet. While 12-team managers can move on, managers in 14-team leagues may want to hold onto Jenkins for a bit. |
|
Ausar Thompson Ausar Thompson (ankle) questionable Tuesday
Tue, Nov 18, 2025, 7:50 AM
NBA Injury Report
Ausar Thompson (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Hawks.
Analysis: Thompson has missed Detroit's last four games, but he's got a chance to take the court on Tuesday. The Pistons' injury report remains crowded, with Cade Cunningham (hip) and Tobias Harris (ankle) also questionable and Caris LeVert (ankle) and Bobi Klintman (ankle) sidelined. Ronald Holland II, Isaiah Stewart and Javonte Green could all be in line for expanded roles if one of Thompson or Harris is out against Atlanta. Daniss Jenkins will continue soaking up minutes if Cunningham is out again. |
