Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson scores 18 points vs. Charlotte
Mon, Feb 9, 2026, 4:51 PM
Duncan Robinson lit up the Hornets with 18 points (8-of-10 FGs), three rebounds, four assists and one three-pointer on Monday.
Analysis: Typically, Robinson's impact comes from behind the three-point line. However, that wasn't the case in this game. He only took three triples, but he made all seven of his attempts from inside the arc, which was enough to help end Charlotte's winning streak. This was Robinson's fourth game with at least 15 points over Detroit's last six, and he'll look to stay hot in Toronto on Wednesday. |

Cade Cunningham Cunningham pours in 33/9/7 line vs. Charlotte
Mon, Feb 9, 2026, 3:59 PM
Cade Cunningham led the Pistons with 33 points (12-of-27 FGs), nine rebounds, seven assists, one steal and two three-pointers in a 110-104 win over the Hornets on Monday.
Analysis: Cunningham didn't do much in Friday's win over the Knicks, though that was mostly due to the lopsided score, which limited his minutes. However, he was able to respond with a strong performance to help end the Hornets' winning streak. Cunningham's 33 points were the most he has scored in a game since November. He'll look to stay hot in Detroit's final game before the All-Star break in Toronto on Wednesday. |

Paul Reed Paul Reed tallies 12/3/1/2/2 line off bench
Mon, Feb 9, 2026, 3:50 PM
Paul Reed came off the bench and contributed 12 points (3-of-5 FGs, 5-of-8 FTs), three rebounds, one assist, two steals, two blocks and one three-pointer against the Hornets on Monday.
Analysis: Reed was able to play a larger role for a second straight game. The first was because Jalen Duren (knee) was sidelined. For this one, it was because both Duren and Isaiah Stewart were ejected for their involvement in a brawl. Managers should expect both Duren and Stewart to face suspensions, and Stewart's could be lengthy. Reed is rostered in just one percent of Yahoo! leagues, and he should be worth streaming against the Raptors on Wednesday. |

Jalen Duren Duren, Stewart ejected due to fight with Hornets
Mon, Feb 9, 2026, 2:48 PM
Keith Langlois
Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart have been ejected from Monday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Expect some suspensions to be handed out. The brawl started with Duren and Moussa Diabate getting tangled up, and every time it seemed like cooler heads would prevail, things escalated again. Diabate and Miles Bridges were also ejected. This leaves Detroit shorthanded down low. With Tolu Smith in the G League, Paul Reed should fill the center minutes for the remainder of this game. |

NBA Injury Report
Jalen Duren (knee) is available to play against the Hornets on Monday.
Analysis: Duren will be back after a one-game absence, which isn't surprising since he was initially listed as probable. Isaiah Stewart moved into the starting lineup in his place but will return to playing a reserve role with Duren back. |

Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 1:25 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Duren (knee) is probable for Monday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Duren was not available for Friday's demolition of the Knicks, as he exited Thursday's loss to the Wizards with a sore right knee. He's on track to return in Charlotte, which would push Isaiah Stewart to the bench since Tobias Harris is available. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham dishes out seven assists vs. NYK
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 4:01 PM
Cade Cunningham produced 11 points (4-of-11 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, seven assists and one three-pointer in Friday's win over the Knicks.
Analysis: Cunningham landed in early foul trouble, but it didn't matter as the Pistons grabbed control of Friday's game during the second quarter and never looked back. While fantasy managers will be disappointed that he only played 22 minutes, the Pistons will be pleased that their All-Star guard got some additional rest. The Pistons are done for Week 16 and return to action on Monday against the Hornets. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris hits three triples, scores 15 points
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 4:01 PM
Tobias Harris finished Friday's win over the Knicks with 15 points (5-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, one assist and three three-pointers.
Analysis: Back in the lineup after sitting out Thursday's loss to the Wizards, Harris knocked down both of his three-point attempts and shot 3-of-6 from the field in the first half. The Pistons continued to roll after halftime, blowing out the Knicks for the second time this season. At this point in his career, fantasy managers know what they're going to get from Harris. Detroit's depth has lowered the veteran forward's ceiling, but he'll be consistent in his role. |

Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 1:17 PM
Omari Sankofa
Cade Cunningham, Ausar Thompson, Duncan Robinson, Tobias Harris and Isaiah Stewart will start Friday's game against the Knicks.
Analysis: Harris is back in the lineup after missing Thursday's loss to the Wizards with a hip injury. However, the Pistons don't have Jalen Duren, so Stewart shifts into the starting center role. Also, Robinson is good to go after being listed as questionable with a left quad contusion. |

Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 1:04 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Duren (knee) is out for Friday's game against the Knicks.

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren (knee) questionable Friday vs. Knicks
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 8:06 AM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Duren (knee) is questionable for Friday's matchup with the Knicks.
Analysis: Duren left Thursday's loss to the Wizards early due to right knee soreness, and he's in danger of sitting out the second leg of the Pistons' back-to-back set. If Duren is out, Isaiah Stewart could remain in the starting five after starting in place Tobias Harris on Thursday. Harris (hip) is expected to take the court, and he and Stewart could hold things down in the frontcourt. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris (hip) expected to play Friday
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 7:58 AM
NBA Injury Report
Tobias Harris (hip) is listed as probable for Friday's matchup with the Knicks.
Analysis: The veteran sat out Thursday's loss to the Wizards, but he'll be back for the second leg of the Pistons' back-to-back set. Fantasy managers should expect him to handle his typical workload. |

Kevin Huerter Kevin Huerter plays six minutes in Pistons debut
Thu, Feb 5, 2026, 3:45 PM
Kevin Huerter missed both of his shot attempts in Thursday's loss to the Wizards, going scoreless with one rebound, one assist and one steal.
Analysis: Huerter made his Pistons' debut on Thursday, but he wasn't on the floor long. He played six minutes during the first half and did not see the floor again. Adding Huerter gives the Pistons another shooter to work into the rotation, but this may be a case where he proves more critical to his new team than to fantasy managers. Which isn't much of a change from his time in Chicago. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham drops game-high 30 points
Thu, Feb 5, 2026, 3:43 PM
Cade Cunningham accounted for 30 points (10-of-21 FGs, 10-of-13 FTs), eight rebounds, eight assists and one block in Thursday's loss to the Wizards.
Analysis: It's fair to question if Friday's showdown with the Knicks was on the Pistons' minds, as they started slowly in a game the Wizards would lead wire-to-wire. Cunningham did his best to lead Detroit back, scoring a game-high 30 points. Finishing two rebounds and two assists shy of a triple-double, Cunningham will look to get the Pistons back on track Friday night. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren (knee) will not return vs. Washington
Thu, Feb 5, 2026, 2:41 PM
Coty Davis
Jalen Duren (knee) will not return to Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Duren looked like a shell of himself in the 13 first-half minutes he played, and with good reason. The first-time All-Star has since been ruled out for the rest of the night with a sore right knee, finishing with four points and three rebounds. Ron Holland replaced Duren in the lineup to begin the second half. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris (hip) out, Isaiah Stewart to start
Thu, Feb 5, 2026, 12:36 PM
NBA Injury Report
Tobias Harris (hip) is out for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Harris' sore left hip will keep him out of Thursday's game, with a home matchup against the Knicks looming on Friday. Isaiah Stewart will move into the starting lineup, joining Cade Cunningham, Duncan Robinson, Ausar Thompson and Jalen Duren. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (wrist) available vs. Washington
Thu, Feb 5, 2026, 12:33 PM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (wrist) is available for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Initially questionable for Thursday's game, Cunningham is good to go. He'll take on his usual role as the Pistons' starting point guard. And with this matchup in particular, Cunningham managers must ensure that he's in their active lineups. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris (hip) questionable Thursday
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 11:10 AM
Tobias Harris (hip) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Harris is dealing with left hip soreness and finds himself listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Wizards. The Pistons also take on the Knicks on Friday on the second game of a back-to-back. It's at least possible the Pistons hold Harris out Thursday, saving him for the more important matchup. Isaiah Stewart or Ron Holland II could move into the starting lineup if Harris is ultimately ruled out. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (wrist) questionable Thursday
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 11:06 AM
Cade Cunningham (wrist) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Cunningham is on the injury report again, this time for right wrist injury management reasons. The 24-year-old point guard is coming off a 29-point, 11-assist performance in Tuesday's win over the Nuggets. It sounds like Cunningham still has a chance to play, but if he's ruled out Daniss Jenkins could move into the starting lineup and would be worth streaming. |
