Javonte Green DET starts Ivey, Robinson, Thompson, Green, Reed
Sat, Jan 10, 2026, 1:09 PM
NBA Lineups
Jaden Ivey, Duncan Robinson, Ausar Thompson, Javonte Green and Paul Reed will start Saturday's game against the Clippers.
Analysis: The Pistons won't have multiple players for Saturday's game, including Cade Cunningham and Isaiah Stewart. As a result, Ivey will make another start at point guard, while Green slides into the lineup to replace Stewart. Reed is the starting center, and the opportunity makes him a worthwhile streamer. |

Isaiah Stewart Isaiah Stewart (illness) downgraded to out Sunday
Sat, Jan 10, 2026, 12:23 PM
NBA Injury Report
Isaiah Stewart (illness) is out for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
Analysis: Added to the Pistons' injury report on Saturday morning, Stewart's absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup. Paul Reed, who started alongside Beef Stew in Wednesday's win over the Bulls, will have solid streaming upside since Jalen Duren (ankle) is also out. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (wrist) out Saturday vs. Clippers
Sat, Jan 10, 2026, 12:20 PM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (wrist) is out for Saturday's game against the Clippers.
Analysis: Cunningham will miss a second consecutive game with a right wrist contusion. Jaden Ivey started Wednesday's win over the Bulls but only played 20 minutes, with Daniss Jenkins logging 28 off the bench. That split makes Jenkins the superior streaming option, but both are risky plays for fantasy managers. |

Isaiah Stewart Isaiah Stewart (illness) questionable vs. Clippers
Sat, Jan 10, 2026, 3:27 AM
NBA Injury Report
Isaiah Stewart (illness) is questionable to play against the Clippers on Saturday.
Analysis: Stewart is a late addition to the injury report, which isn't uncommon when illnesses pop up. He's been starting with Jalen Duren (ankle) sidelined, but if Stewart is out as well, Paul Reed would likely step in as the starting center and have tons of upside as a streamer. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (wrist) questionable Saturday
Fri, Jan 9, 2026, 11:35 AM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (wrist) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Clippers.
Analysis: Cunningham did not play in Wednesday's win over the Bulls, which moved Jaden Ivey into the starting lineup. However, Ivey only played 20 minutes despite no longer being under a minutes restriction. Daniss Jenkins played 28 minutes off the bench and dished out a career-high 15 assists. |

Jaden Ivey Jaden Ivey plays 20 min in first start of season
Wed, Jan 7, 2026, 3:22 PM
Jaden Ivey produced eight points (3-of-7 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds and four assists in Wednesday's win over the Bulls.
Analysis: Cade Cunningham's absence led to Ivey making his first start since he suffered a fractured fibula during a January 1, 2025, game against the Magic. He's still on a minutes restriction, so the Pistons' guard was unable to take full advantage of the opportunity. But Ivey did dish out four assists, with only Paul Reed (9/6/6/1 with one three-pointer) having more among the Pistons starters. Ivey still isn't at the point where he should be rostered in most redraft leagues, and that's unlikely to change anytime soon. |

Isaiah Stewart Isaiah Stewart goes off for career-high 31 points
Wed, Jan 7, 2026, 3:21 PM
Isaiah Stewart recorded 31 points (14-of-17 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, one assist, one steal, two blocks and two three-pointers in Wednesday's win over the Bulls.
Analysis: With Tobias Harris and Jalen Duren out, Stewart's fantasy value has received a boost recently. However, with Cade Cunningham also out on Wednesday, few envisioned Beef Stew putting on the performance that he did against the Bulls. He only missed three of his 17 shot attempts, finishing with his first 30-point game as a pro. Stewart only grabbed three rebounds, but the points, field-goal percentage and âstocksâ more than compensate for that âdeficiency.â Rostered in 22 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Stewart has offered sixth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past week. |

Jaden Ivey DET starts Ivey, Robinson, Thompson, Reed, Stewart
Wed, Jan 7, 2026, 12:46 PM
NBA Lineups
Jaden Ivey, Duncan Robinson, Ausar Thompson, Paul Reed and Isaiah Stewart will start Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: The Pistons are without Cade Cunningham for Wednesday's game, as he's out with a wrist injury. Ivey moves into the starting lineup, making his first start since returning from a fractured fibula on November 22. While this does raise Ivey's ceiling, the boost may not be significant since Daniss Jenkins and Marcus Sasser are also available. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (knee) available Wednesday vs. CHI
Wed, Jan 7, 2026, 12:26 PM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: After a four-game absence, LeVert is available to play. Given the time off, he may not be in a position to benefit too much from the minutes that are available with Cade Cunningham (hand) ruled out. There isn't much to gain from rostering LeVert in most leagues. |

NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (wrist) has been ruled out against the Bulls on Wednesday.
Analysis: Cunningham was originally listed as probable for this game but was downgraded to questionable earlier in the day. He has now officially been ruled out, which will open up plenty of minutes and shots for Jaden Ivey, Daniss Jenkins and Marcus Sasser. |

Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson (calf) available Wednesday
Wed, Jan 7, 2026, 12:22 PM
NBA Injury Report
Duncan Robinson (calf) is available for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: Initially probable for Wednesday's game, Robinson will occupy his usual place in the Pistons' starting lineup. Cade Cunningham is out, so Detroit may look to the sharpshooter for more scoring. And in this particular matchup, there should be more opportunities for Robinson to knock down shots. |

Wed, Jan 7, 2026, 7:40 AM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (wrist) has been downgraded to questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Bulls.
Analysis: Cunningham's downgraded status suggests he's in danger of sitting out against Chicago due to a right wrist contusion. His potential absence could mean more playing time for Daniss Jenkins and Marcus Sasser. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (wrist) probable Wednesday
Tue, Jan 6, 2026, 2:05 PM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (wrist) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: Cunningham, who did about whatever he wanted in Monday's win over the Knicks, is dealing with a right wrist contusion. The good news is that he's considered probable, so fantasy managers should assume that Cade will play. If he doesn't play, Daniss Jenkins and Marcus Sasser will figure more prominently in the Pistons' rotation. |

Duncan Robinson Duncan Robinson (calf) probable Wednesday vs. CHI
Tue, Jan 6, 2026, 11:10 AM
NBA Injury Report
Duncan Robinson (calf) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: Despite having a left calf contusion, Robinson is on track to play based on the probable tag. If he's available, Robinson will be in the starting lineup. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (knee) probable Wednesday vs. CHI
Tue, Jan 6, 2026, 11:05 AM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (knee) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: LeVert has missed Detroit's last four games wth left knee tendinopathy. His return would likely result in fewer minutes for Daniss Jenkins, who played 23 minutes off the bench in Monday's win over the Knicks. |

Javonte Green Javonte Green has 17 points, four threes in win
Mon, Jan 5, 2026, 3:41 PM
Javonte Green had 17 points (6-of-9 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, one assist, two steals and four three-pointers against the Knicks on Monday.
Analysis: Green continues to play more minutes with Jalen Duren, Tobias Harris and Caris LeVert missing some time. The 32-year-old shooting guard isn't worth rostering in most leagues, but in the right matchup he can score around 20 points and make 3-4 threes. That might be enough to make him worth considering as a streamer in some deeper formats. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham has 29 points, 13 assists in win
Mon, Jan 5, 2026, 3:34 PM
Cade Cunningham had 29 points (11-of-17 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), three rebounds, 13 assists, one steal, two blocks and three three-pointers in the Pistons' 121-90 victory over the Knicks on Monday.
Analysis: Cunningham admitted in the postgame interview that there was something extra to the game because they were playing the Knicks for the first time since losing to them in last year's playoffs. The Pistons had a 10 point at halftime before Cunningham completely took over in the third quarter. The 24-year-old point guard had 15 points, the same amount as the Knicks' entire team, as the Pistons won the third quarter by 10. He came out of the game with 29 points and 13 assists in just 29 minutes. Cunningham should be well rested when Detroit is back in action Wednesday against the Bulls. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (hip) available Monday vs. Knicks
Mon, Jan 5, 2026, 12:34 PM
Cade Cunningham (hip) is available for Monday's game against the Knicks.
Analysis: Cunningham was listed as probable with a right hip contusion, so it's no surprise he's available for Monday's game. The 24-year-old point guard had 27 points in 37 minutes in Sunday's win over the Cavaliers. Cunningham went through warmups and was ruled in for a rematch from last year's playoffs against the Knicks. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (knee) remains out vs. New York
Mon, Jan 5, 2026, 12:33 PM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (knee) has been ruled out against the Knicks on Monday.
Analysis: LeVert will miss a fourth straight game, which means Daniss Jenkins and Marcus Sasser will continue to fill his role off the bench. Sasser shined in the first two absences, while Jenkins scored 25 in Detroit's last game. |

Paul Reed Paul Reed corrals eight rebounds in spot start
Sun, Jan 4, 2026, 10:43 AM
Paul Reed tallied eight points (4-of-9 FGs), eight rebounds, four assists and one steal in Sunday's win over the Cavaliers.
Analysis: The Pistons did not have Tobias Harris or Jalen Duren for Sunday's game, so Reed joined Isaiah Stewart in the starting lineup. âBBall Paulâ wasn't a prolific scorer, but the rebounds and assists will be helpful to the few who streamed him. As for Stewart, he supplemented his eight points with three rebounds, two assists, two steals and three blocked shots. He remains the superior option for fantasy managers while Harris and Duren remain out. |
