Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (illness) out Tuesday vs. Denver
Mon, Jan 26, 2026, 10:06 AM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (illness) is out for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets.
Analysis: LeVert will miss a fourth straight game as he continues to battle an illness. Ron Holland II and Daniss Jenkins have picked up a few additional minutes in his absence, but neither is worth streaming when used in a reserve role. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren has 18 points in win over Kings Sunday
Sun, Jan 25, 2026, 12:00 PM
Jalen Duren had 18 points (7-of-8 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), six rebounds, one assist, two steals and one block in Sunday's win over the Kings.
Analysis: Duren's breakout season continued Sunday against the Kings as he put up at least 18 points for the fourth consecutive game. The 22-year-old center was able to hit his season average in points despite playing just 24 minutes because of the lopsided score. He's provided fourth-round per game value this season. The Pistons have an off-day Monday before starting a four-game week with the Nuggets on Tuesday. |

Tobias Harris Tobias Harris has 16 points, four threes in win
Sun, Jan 25, 2026, 11:55 AM
Tobias Harris had 16 points (6-of-12 FGs), two rebounds, three assists, two steals and four three-pointers in Sunday's win over the Kings.
Analysis: Harris was efficient, making four three-pointers. It was reminiscent of the 33-year-old small forward's 25-point effort against the Celtics earlier this week. The main difference was the Pistons blew out the Kings by 23 points and Harris only played 24 minutes. While Harris hasn't been a great fantasy asset this season, his production has improved since returning from a hip injury and he could benefit from a change of scenery if he's traded before the deadline. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham bounces back with 29 points Sunday
Sun, Jan 25, 2026, 11:47 AM
Cade Cunningham had 29 points (13-of-22 FGs, 0-of-1 FTs), five rebounds, 11 assists, three steals, one block and three three-pointers in Sunday's 139-116 victory over the Kings.
Analysis: Cunningham broke a streak of four consecutive games where he failed to reach at least 20 points with a 29-point effort against the Kings on Sunday. While there was speculation that the 24-year-old point guard's wrist injury was impacting his shooting, Cunningham largely put those concerns to rest against the Kings. He's provided second-round per game value this season. The Pistons have four games in the upcoming week, starting with a matchup against the Nuggets on Tuesday. |

Sun, Jan 25, 2026, 8:23 AM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (illness) is out for Sunday's game against the Kings.
Analysis: LeVert will miss a third consecutive game due to illness. His absence has freed up additional minutes for the other Pistons' reserves, most notably Ron Holland II. While he isn't worth streaming, Holland has value in dynasty leagues. |

Sun, Jan 25, 2026, 8:20 AM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (wrist) is available for Sunday's game against the Kings.
Analysis: Cunningham was initially probable for Sunday's game, so the status upgrade was expected. He'll occupy his usual place in the starting lineup, with Daniss Jenkins missing out on a boost to his fantasy value. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (wrist) probable Sunday vs. Kings
Sat, Jan 24, 2026, 9:36 AM
Cade Cunningham (wrist) is probable for Sunday's game against the Kings.
Analysis: Cunningham is likely to suit up Sunday against the Kings, given his probable listing, though he's on the injury report for right wrist injury management reasons. It's difficult to ignore the 24-year-old point guard's struggles recently as he's been held under 20 points in each of the last four games. Cunningham, who's averaging 25.3 points per game this season, will likely have the chance to bounce back against the Kings on Sunday. |

Isaiah Stewart Isaiah Stewart contributes 16 points off bench
Fri, Jan 23, 2026, 4:33 PM
Isaiah Stewart provided a boost off the bench with 16 points (7-of-9 FGs), four rebounds and two assists against the Rockets on Friday.
Analysis: Stewart had a quiet stretch entering this game, but he was able to get things going on offense in the loss. Typically, Stewart's impact is on the glass and as a shot blocker, but he wasn't able to do much of either in this game. Still, a productive scoring night is encouraging since he should typically collect more boards and blocks than he did in this game. However, he hasn't been able to make a consistent impact for fantasy managers as a reserve. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (illness) available vs. Rockets
Fri, Jan 23, 2026, 12:33 PM
Hunter Patterson
Cade Cunningham (illness) is available to play on Friday against the Rockets.
Analysis: Cunningham will take the floor on Friday following a one-game absence. Despite averaging 14.0 points and 3.3 rebounds per game over the last three outings, the Pistons have won four straight and continue to sit atop the Eastern Conference standings. However, fantasy managers hope on Friday that Cunningham can put up numbers that are more like his season averages on 25.7/5.9/9.8. |

Fri, Jan 23, 2026, 7:57 AM
NBA Injury Report
Duncan Robinson (back) is available for Friday's matchup with the Rockets, and Caris LeVert (illness) is out.
Analysis: No surprises for either player, as Robinson was listed as probable, and LeVert was listed as doubtful. Robinson has knocked down at least four treys in six straight games, and he'll look to carry positive momentum into Friday's tilt with Houston. |

Fri, Jan 23, 2026, 7:31 AM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (illness) has been upgraded to probable for Friday's matchup with the Rockets.
Analysis: Cunningham will be back following a one-game absence, which means Daniss Jenkins should shift back to the bench. Fewer minutes will be available for Marcus Sasser and Jaden Ivey. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (illness) doubtful vs. Houston
Thu, Jan 22, 2026, 11:43 AM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (illness) is doubtful to play against the Rockets on Friday.
Analysis: LeVert is expected to miss a second straight game with this illness. That should open the door for Ron Holland II and Jaden Ivey to take on a few extra minutes off the bench, but it won't dramatically alter fantasy hoops. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (illness) questionable Friday
Thu, Jan 22, 2026, 11:31 AM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (illness, hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Rockets.
Analysis: Cunningham did not play in Wednesday's win over the Pelicans, resulting in Daniss Jenkins moving into the starting lineup. And he was backed up by Marcus Sasser, with Jaden Ivey getting his minutes at shooting guard. Expect a similar rotation if Cunningham doesn't play against Houston. |

Thu, Jan 22, 2026, 11:29 AM
NBA Injury Report
Duncan Robinson (back) is probable to play against the Rockets on Wednesday.
Analysis: Robinson is managing a back sprain, but he is expected to suit up against Houston. He'll look to stay red-hot in this game, having hit at least four triples in six consecutive games. |

Ausar Thompson Ausar Thompson posts 12/9/3/3 line vs. New Orleans
Wed, Jan 21, 2026, 5:18 PM
Ausar Thompson recorded 12 points (5-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), nine rebounds, three assists and three steals in Wednesday's win over the Pelicans.
Analysis: Given the expectations of many fantasy managers, Thompson's season has been underwhelming in that regard. But he had a solid night in New Orleans, shooting 50 percent from the field and finishing one rebound shy of a double-double. And even with the limited scoring output, Thompson has been close to a top-75 payer over the past two weeks. |

Jalen Duren Jalen Duren records 20/15/3/1/2 line vs. Pelicans
Wed, Jan 21, 2026, 5:18 PM
Jalen Duren finished Wednesday's win over the Pelicans with 20 points (7-of-11 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), 15 rebounds, three assists, one steal and two blocked shots.
Analysis: With Cade Cunningham unavailable due to illness and a hip injury, the Pistons needed others to step up. Duren was at the top of the list, and the center was dominant in New Orleans. For the fourth time this season, Duren finished a game with at least 20 points and 15 rebounds. Add in the defensive stats and assists, and Wednesday was an excellent night for those who have Duren rostered. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (illness) downgraded to out Wednesday
Wed, Jan 21, 2026, 12:09 PM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (illness) is out for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.
Analysis: LeVert will not be available for Wednesday's game, leaving the Pistons down two rotation guards since Cade Cunningham is also out. LeVert's absence will not have a significant impact on fantasy basketball, but it should lead to more minutes for Ron Holland II. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (illness) downgraded to out
Wed, Jan 21, 2026, 12:05 PM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (illness, hip) is out for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.
Analysis: Added to the Pistons' injury report on Wednesday afternoon, Cunningham will not play due to a left hip contusion. Jaden Ivey filled in the last time Cunningham missed a game, but he did not play starters' minutes. With Daniss Jenkins and Marcus Sasser also in the mix for rotation minutes, Ivey isn't worth the risk in this spot. |

Cade Cunningham Cade Cunningham (illness) questionable Wednesday
Wed, Jan 21, 2026, 7:11 AM
NBA Injury Report
Cade Cunningham (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Pelicans.
Analysis: Cunningham is a late addition to the injury report, so fantasy managers should have a contingency plan prepared. If Detroit's star point guard is forced to sit this one out, Daniss Jenkins and Jaden Ivey will be in line for additional minutes. |

Caris LeVert Caris LeVert (illness) questionable Wednesday
Tue, Jan 20, 2026, 4:49 PM
NBA Injury Report
Caris LeVert (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.
Analysis: LeVert is a late addition to the Pistons' injury report. If he were to miss Wednesday's game, it would not significantly affect fantasy basketball due to the Pistons' depth on the wings. Ron Holland II and Jaden Ivey could see their minutes increase if LeVert sits. |
