Detroit Pistons

Detroit Pistons guard Tim Hardaway Jr. (back) will be able to return to the floor for the Pistons on Saturday night when they host the Raptors. Hardaway was originally listed as questionable after being a late scratch for Thursday's contest due to back tightness. He had been starting for Detroit and getting a little more work with Jaden Ivey (leg) out. The veteran averaged 13.2 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 2.4 three-pointers in 31 minutes in his last five games before being sidelined. His return will move Malik Beasley to the second unit while Ron Holland II and Marcus Sasser will likely have less work off the bench as well.

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (back) will not play in Thursday's contest against Golden State. He was a late addition to the injury report due to a back issue, and the injury will keep the veteran sniper sidelined on Thursday. Ausar Thompson (illness) will take over Hardaway Jr.'s spot in the starting unit. Thompson has been battling an illness lately, missing two games, and might not be at his best on Thursday.

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (left knee soreness) is available for Saturday's matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Cunningham had been listed as probable but is now cleared to play and will continue his role as the centerpiece of Detroit's offense. The star guard has proven capable of elite production, including two triple-doubles in the past month, making him a valuable fantasy asset whenever he is on the court.

Detroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (personal) is listed as questionable for Saturday night's matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves for personal reasons. Fontecchio has missed Detroit's last two games, putting him in danger of missing a third straight. The 29-year-old has produced modestly off Detroit's bench this season, averaging 6.4 PPG in 30 games. If he's to miss Saturday night's game, expect Ausar Thompson to get more minutes off Detroit's bench.

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (knee) is expected to play on Saturday versus Minnesota. The 2021 No. 1 overall pick has had the best year of his career, averaging 23.6 points, 9.5 assists, and 6.7 rebounds while shooting 37.1% from behind the arc. He's also missed only four games after logging 62 games or less in each of his first three seasons in the National Basketball Association. Without question, Cunningham is a must-start in all redraft formats, even more so with Jaden Ivey (leg) sidelined. However, his DFS potential is limited, considering the Timberwolves have allowed 107.7 points per game this season, the fourth-best mark in the league.
