Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson chips in with 15 points vs. MIN
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 4:03 PM
Duncan Robinson notched 15 points (5-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, three assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Thursday's win over the Timberwolves.
Analysis: Robinson has made multiple three-pointers in each of his last seven games. The Pistons wing shot 3-of-7 from deep on Thursday, and he also offered solid value in rebounds and assists. Over the past two weeks, Robinson has averaged 14.0 points and 3.5 three-pointers per game, remaining a reliable option for fantasy managers seeking production in those two categories. |

Ausar Thompson Ausar Thompson dishes out career-high nine assists
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 4:02 PM
Ausar Thompson finished Thursday's win over the Timberwolves with seven points (3-of-6 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), nine rebounds, nine assists, two steals and three blocked shots.
Analysis: Thompson may not offer much as a scorer, but his ability to fill a stat line is why he remains valuable in category leagues. The third-year wing dished out a career-high nine assists on Thursday while also providing excellent value in rebounds, steals and blocks. Over his last three games, Thompson is responsible for 19 assists and six turnovers. He'll have one more opportunity to fill the stat sheet on Saturday against the 76ers. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren records 22/14/4/1/2 line vs. MIN
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 4:02 PM
Jalen Duren recorded 22 points (8-of-15 FGs, 6-of-10 FTs), 14 rebounds, four assists, one steal and two blocks in Thursday's win over the Timberwolves.
Analysis: After finishing one rebound shy of a fifth consecutive double-double in Tuesday's win over the Raptors, Duren kicked off a new streak on Thursday. Since March 1, the Pistons' center has recorded 14 rebounds in four games. And with Cade Cunningham (lung) out, Duren has been able to do more facilitating within the Pistons' half-court offense. He's recorded at least three assists in each of his last six appearances. The last time Duren did that was in mid-November. Detroit plays once more in Week 23, as they visit the 76ers on Saturday. |

Omari Sankofa
Tobias Harris (knee) is out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analysis: Harris played just six minutes before exiting Thursday's game. Due to a left knee contusion suffered while converting a layup over Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert, the veteran forward is done for the night. More minutes will be available to Javonte Green and Ron Holland. |

Tobias Harris (knee) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analysis: Harris suffered a left knee contusion when converting a first-quarter layup over Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert. The veteran forward limped back to the locker room seconds later, with Javonte Green replacing him in the lineup. |

Marcus Sasser Marcus Sasser (hip) upgraded to available vs. MIN
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 11:54 AM
NBA Injury Report
Marcus Sasser (hip) is available for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analysis: Initially questionable for Thursday's game, Sasser is good to go. However, after playing eight minutes in Tuesday's win over the Raptors, the risk of rostering Sasser far outweighs the reward. He should remain on the waiver wire, regardless of league format. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (lung) to miss another week
Thu, Apr 2, 2026, 7:03 AM
Eric Vincent
Cade Cunningham (lung) will be re-evaluated in one week.
Analysis: Cunningham has appeared on the Pistons' sideline in recent games and continues to progress in his return to play process, according to the Pistons. The 24-year-old shooting guard will miss another week at the very least. Daniss Jenkins will continue to start for Detroit with Cunningham sidelined. |

Marcus Sasser Marcus Sasser (hip) questionable vs. Minnesota
Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 11:25 AM
NBA Injury Report
Marcus Sasser (hip) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analysis: Sasser was also considered questionable for Tuesday's win over the Raptors, a game in which he logged eight minutes. His availability does not affect fantasy basketball, but the Pistons would be down another option on the perimeter if Sasser has to sit. |

Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson has 19 points, five threes in win
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 4:58 PM
Duncan Robinson had 19 points (6-of-9 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), one rebound, two assists, one steal and five three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Raptors.
Analysis: Robinson missed Monday's loss to the Thunder as he was managing a right hip injury. The 31-year-old small forward returned Tuesday and had 19 points against the Raptors, making five three-pointers. Robinson will continue to be a solid source of threes when available. There should be enough off days for him to play in both of the Pistons' remaining games in Week 23. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren has 31 points, nine boards in win
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 4:45 PM
Jalen Duren had 31 points (12-of-13 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), nine rebounds, three assists and two blocks in the Pistons' 127-116 victory over the Raptors on Tuesday.
Analysis: Duren had a huge game as the Pistons took down the Raptors without Cade Cunningham (lung). The 22-year-old center is now averaging 23.4 points, 10.6 rebounds and shooting 68 percent from the field in the last seven games without Cunningham. Duren has provided second-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Pistons have two games remaining in Week 23, starting with a matchup against the Timberwolves on Thursday. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (knee) available Tuesday vs. Raptors
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 1:11 PM
Caris LeVert (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis: LeVert had 10 points in 26 minutes off the bench in Monday's loss to the Thunder. With a few Pistons starters returning Tuesday against the Raptors, we don't expect LeVert to have much of a fantasy ceiling. |
|
Marcus Sasser Marcus Sasser (hip) available vs. Toronto
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 1:11 PM
NBA Injury Report
Marcus Sasser (hip) is available to play against the Raptors on Tuesday.
Analysis: Sasser will be good to go once again, and he scored 12 points off the bench during Monday's loss. However, even if he is able to replicate that production, he isn't a player to target in fantasy basketball. |
|
Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson (hip) available Tuesday
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 1:07 PM
Duncan Robinson (hip) is available for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis: Robinson was among the many Pistons that sat out Monday's loss to the Thunder, but will return for Tuesday's game against the Raptors. Kevin Huerter, who started and had 17 points Monday, would seemingly be the most impacted by Robinson's return. |
|
Tobias Harris Tobias Harris (hip) available vs. Toronto
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 1:06 PM
NBA Injury Report
Tobias Harris (hip) is available to play against the Raptors on Tuesday.
Analysis: Harris will be good to go after missing Monday's game against OKC. Javonte Green started with Harris unavailable, so he will head back to the bench after scoring 19 points in 30 minutes on Monday. |
|
Jalen Duren Jalen Duren (knee) available Tuesday vs. Raptors
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 1:03 PM
Jalen Duren (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis: Duren was initially listed as probable as he continues to manage a knee injury, so his availability isn't a surprise. Paul Reed started Monday's loss to the Thunder, but will head back to the bench with Duren returning. |
|
Caris LeVert Caris Levert, Marcus Sasser questionable Tuesday
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 9:22 AM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (knee) and Marcuss Sasser (hip) are questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Raptors.
Analysis: Detroit's injury report is lengthy for the second leg of a back-to-back set. If LeVert and Sasser sit out, more work could be available for Daniss Jenkins and Kevin Huerter. |
|
Jalen Duren Jalen Duren probable, Isaiah Stewart out Tuesday
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 9:01 AM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Duren (knee) is probable for Tuesday's matchup with the Raptors, and Isaiah Stewart (calf) is out.
Analysis: Duren is expected to return following a one-game absence, and he should push Paul Reed back to the bench. Reed was productive in Monday's spot start, but he should still see meaningful rotation minutes with Stewart still out of action. |
|
Tobias Harris Tobias Harris, Duncan Robinson (hip) probable
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 8:56 AM
NBA Injury Report
Tobias Harris (hip) and Duncan Robinson (hip) are probable for Tuesday's tilt with Toronto.
Analysis: Harris and Robinson were among the many Pistons players who sat out Monday's loss to the Thunder, but the pair is expected to return for the second leg of Detroit's back-to-back set. Ron Holland II and Kevin Huerter could see their minutes reduced as a result. |

Paul Reed Paul Reed posts 21/10/2/1/4 line Monday vs. OKC
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 7:16 PM
Paul Reed added 21 points (7-of-13 FGs, 6-of-8 FTs), 10 rebounds, two assists, one steal, four blocks and one three-pointer in Monday's loss to the Thunder.
Analysis: Reed's production was well distributed on Monday. He shot the ball well to finish as one of Detroit's leading scorers and was the only one to reach the 20-point mark. He also led the team in blocked shots, hit a three-pointer, and attacked the glass hard to secure a double-double. Despite coming in a loss, Reed was productive on Monday and has fared well as a starter this season. Should he remain in the starting unit going forward, he may be able to help fantasy managers during the final week of the fantasy season. |

Javonte Green Javonte Green tallies 19 points Monday vs. Thunder
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 7:10 PM
Javonte Green finished with 19 points (6-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, one assist, two steals and five three-pointers in Monday's loss to the Thunder.
Analysis: Green was superb from beyond the arc on Monday, with his individual production there amounting to almost a third of his team's production from distance. The veteran forward also chipped in on the glass and collected a couple of steals during his 30 minutes of game action. Green has now made multiple three-pointers in three straight games. However, he isn't someone fantasy managers should be looking to add for impact during Championship Week. |
