Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson hits four triples, scores 14
Fri, Dec 26, 2025, 6:20 PM
Duncan Robinson tallied 14 points (5-of-10 FGs), four rebounds, one assist, one block and four three-pointers in Friday's loss to the Jazz.
Analysis: Robinson has now made at least three three-pointers in four straight appearances, which is precisely how he's expected to offer value in fantasy basketball. Averaging 2.9 three-pointers per game, the Pistons wing is ranked outside the top-150 in eight-cat formats. Unless there's a need for three-pointers and not much else, fantasy managers in most leagues can afford to leave Robinson on the waiver wire. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris finishes defeat with 16 points
Fri, Dec 26, 2025, 6:19 PM
Tobias Harris amassed 16 points (6-of-13 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), seven rebounds, four assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Friday's loss to the Jazz.
Analysis: Harris has scored in double figures in four straight and five of his last six games. While the scoring has been relatively consistent, the veteran forward's fantasy value has remained relatively low. Over the past two weeks, Harris has been ranked just outside the top-150 in eight-cat formats. Rostered in 33 percent of Yahoo! leagues, some fantasy managers will have to determine if holding onto Harris is worth it. His ceiling is considerably lower than in seasons past, due in part to Detroit's improved depth. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham drops 29/5/17/2/2 line vs. Utah
Fri, Dec 26, 2025, 6:19 PM
Cade Cunningham accounted for 29 points (10-of-19 FGs, 6-of-9 FTs), five rebounds, 17 assists, two steals, two blocks and three three-pointers in Friday's loss to the Jazz.
Analysis: After dishing out 14 assists in Tuesday's win over the Kings, Cunningham racked up 17 more on Friday, one shy of his career-high. Even better for fantasy managers is that the Pistons' point guard kept the turnovers in check. He only committed four on Friday, less than half of his total against Sacramento (nine). Cunningham had a chance to win the game, but his three-pointer fell left of the mark as time expired. He and the Pistons will look to end Week 10 with a win when they visit the Clippers on Sunday. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham dishes out 14 assists vs. Kings
Tue, Dec 23, 2025, 6:50 PM
Cade Cunningham produced 23 points (8-of-15 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, 14 assists, five steals and two three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Kings.
Analysis: Cunningham has dished out at least nine assists in five straight games, and the 14 he recorded on Tuesday were four shy of his season-high. However, there was a negative for those competing in nine-cat formats: turnovers. Cunningham committed a season-high nine against the Kings, and that has been a category that fantasy managers have needed to punt in previous seasons. There's a one-round difference between Cade's eight-cat and nine-cat values, with the Pistons point guard being a first-round player in the former. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris scores team-high 24 points vs. SAC
Tue, Dec 23, 2025, 6:49 PM
Tobias Harris tallied 24 points (10-of-16 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), four rebounds, four assists and three three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Kings.
Analysis: For just the fourth time this season and first since December 3, Harris has scored at least 20 points in a game. Tuesday's final tally was two shy of the veteran forward's season-high. Given Detroit's depth, Harris's fantasy ceiling and floor have taken a hit this season. Over the last two weeks, he's ranked outside the top-150 in eight-cat formats, which is where his season-long value lies as well. Deep-league managers shouldn't drop Harris immediately, but taking a swing on a player with higher upside wouldn't be a bad idea. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren records 23 points, 13 rebounds vs. SAC
Tue, Dec 23, 2025, 6:48 PM
Jalen Duren finished Tuesday's win over the Kings with 23 points (10-of-15 FGs, 3-of-7 FTs), 13 rebounds, four assists and two blocks.
Analysis: For the third time this season, Duren has recorded a double-double in four consecutive games. The physicality he and the other Pistons' interior players brought proved too much for the Kings to handle on Tuesday, as Detroit extended its lead atop the Eastern Conference to three games in the loss column. Duren has been close to a top-50 player in eight- and nine-cat formats this season, and it would be unsurprising if he cracked that threshold at some point and remained there. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (knee) available Tuesday vs. SAC
Tue, Dec 23, 2025, 3:20 PM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Kings.
Analysis: LeVert is good to go after initially being questionable for Tuesday's game. He'll be one of the Pistons' rotation guards off the bench, but he offers a limited fantasy ceiling in that role. There's no need to roster LeVert in standard leagues. |

Ausar Thompson Ausar Thompson has 18 points, 12 boards in win
Mon, Dec 22, 2025, 6:58 PM
Ausar Thompson had 18 points (8-of-16 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), 12 rebounds, three assists and three steals against the Trail Blazers on Tuesday.
Analysis: Thompson was integral in the Pistons' victory Monday night. The 22-year-old small forward had 18 points and was a force both on the glass with 12 rebounds and defensively with three steals. The Pistons blew a 21-point fourth quarter lead, but Thompson had a late steal that helped them close the game out anyway. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham has 14 points in win over Blazers
Mon, Dec 22, 2025, 6:52 PM
Cade Cunningham had 14 points (6-of-9 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), six rebounds, nine assists, one steal and one three-pointer against the Trail Blazers on Monday.
Analysis: Cunningham has now scored 15 points or less in two of his last five games. The 24-year-old point guard is averaging just 23.1 points per game in December after averaging 31.6 in November. Cunningham also turned it over five times, which lessened his value in nine-category leagues. He'll be back on the floor Tuesday against the Kings. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren has 26 points, 10 boards in win
Mon, Dec 22, 2025, 6:46 PM
Jalen Duren had 26 points (11-of-15 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), 10 rebounds, two assists, one steal and two blocks in the Pistons' 110-102 victory over the Trail Blazers on Monday.
Analysis: Duren's 26 points were a game-high in the eight-point win over the Trail Blazers. Detroit led by as much as 21 in the third quarter, but found themselves trailing with under four minutes left in regulation. Duren was one of six Pistons in double figures as they begin a west coast trip. Detroit will face the Kings in the second game of a back-to-back Tuesday. |

Sun, Dec 21, 2025, 2:12 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Duren (hip) is probable for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Analysis: Duren is dealing with a left hip contusion, but the probable tag is a good sign regarding his availability for Monday's game. If he's unable to play, Isaiah Stewart would move into the starting lineup, with Paul Reed serving as his backup. |

Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson has 15 points, four threes in win
Sat, Dec 20, 2025, 5:01 PM
Duncan Robinson had 15 points (5-of-10 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), three rebounds, one assist, one steal and four three-pointers against the Hornets on Saturday.
Analysis: Robinson had a nice game after being listed on the injury report with a knee issue. The 31-year-old small forward had 15 points and four three-pointers in 25 minutes in the win over the Hornets. Robinson continues to have a solid season with the Pistons and the knee injury doesn't appear to be a lingering issue. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren has double-double in win over Hornets
Sat, Dec 20, 2025, 4:53 PM
Jalen Duren had 19 points (9-of-16 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), 11 rebounds, two assists and one steal against the Hornets on Saturday.
Analysis: Duren has now recorded back-to-back double-doubles after failing to record at least 10 rebounds in four of the five games before that. The 22-year-old center scored 19 points in 25 minutes and got to rest with the Pistons up big late. Detroit has four games in Week 10, starting with a contest against the Trail Blazers Monday. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham has triple-double in win Saturday
Sat, Dec 20, 2025, 4:29 PM
Cade Cunningham had 22 points (9-of-20 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 10 rebounds, 10 assists, two steals and one three-pointer in the Pistons' 112-86 victory over the Hornets on Saturday.
Analysis: Cunningham was just one assist away from a triple-double in Thursday's game against the Mavericks, but he was able to get the job done with his 14th triple-double of his career and third this year Saturday. Cade is averaging 28 points per game, 8 rebounds per game and 10 assists per game over his last three games. He only had two turnovers against the Hornets, which is important in nine-category leagues. The Pistons have four games in Week 10, starting with the Trail Blazers on Monday. |

Sat, Dec 20, 2025, 1:04 PM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: LeVert was initially probable for Saturday's game, so the status upgrade was expected. However, with Duncan Robinson also available, LeVert's fantasy ceiling will be limited. He can remain on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues. |

Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson (knee) available Saturday vs. CHA
Sat, Dec 20, 2025, 12:05 PM
NBA Injury Report
Duncan Robinson (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Robinson exited Thursday's loss to the Mavericks during the third quarter with a left knee contusion. He won't have to miss any additional game time and will be in his usual spot in the Pistons' starting lineup. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (knee) upgraded to probable vs. CHA
Sat, Dec 20, 2025, 6:05 AM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (knee) has been upgraded to probable to play against the Hornets on Saturday.
Analysis: LeVert was initially questionable for this game, but he has been upgraded and is on track to suit up. With Duncan Robinson (knee) also probable, LeVert should occupy his typical reserve role, which hasn't led to much fantasy production this season. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (knee) questionable Saturday vs. CHA
Fri, Dec 19, 2025, 11:08 AM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: One day after picking up additional minutes due to Duncan Robinson's premature exit, LeVert is dealing with a sore right knee. Robinson is listed as probable for Saturday's game, so LeVert's availability won't significantly affect fantasy basketball. Ron Holland II may pick up additional minutes if Caris sits, but he hasn't been consistently productive. |
|
Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson (knee) probable Saturday vs. CHA
Fri, Dec 19, 2025, 11:03 AM
NBA Injury Report
Duncan Robinson (knee) is probable for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Robinson exited Thursday's loss to the Mavericks during the third quarter with a left knee contusion. Caris LeVert picked up additional minutes in Robinson's absence. Still, he's unlikely to receive a notable boost to his fantasy value with the starting wing considered probable to play on Saturday. |
