Detroit Pistons DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (heel) is in danger of missing his third consecutive game after picking up a questionable status for Monday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. The veteran has been suffering from some soreness in his left heel. The Pistons have already clinched a playoff berth, so they're likely going to be a bit cautious with only four games remaining on their schedule. If Harris is forced to miss another game, Dennis Schroder and Ausar Thompson should both continue to see a bump in usage. Malik Beasley should also keep seeing big minutes off the bench. Thompson has the highest fantasy ceiling of the three as displayed by his last game, where he posted 18 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (lower leg) has been listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings and could miss his second consecutive game due to the same lower leg issue. The young big man has already hit a career-high in games played in a season and boasts averages of 11.9 points, 10.4 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.2 blocks per game. If he's unable to play on Monday, Isaiah Stewart should get another starting nod. In their last game against the Memphis Grizzlies, Stewart registered 16 points, eight rebounds, four assists, two steals, and three blocks. He serves as a great streaming option and a cheaper DFS option if he gets another start.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (heel) won't play on Saturday against Memphis. He has a sore heel, so he'll miss his second-consecutive game on Saturday night. Ausar Thompson will continue to handle things at the four spot, with the 22-year-old amassing 15 points, seven boards, three steals, and two blocks in Friday's win over the Raptors. While Thompson remains a viable fantasy commodity, the return of Cade Cunningham (calf) could result in a dip in scoring opportunities.

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (calf) will suit up on Saturday against Memphis after missing the last six games because of a calf contusion. It's possible the 23-year-old plays fewer than the 35 minutes he's averaged throughout the 2024-25 campaign, but that doesn't mean he should be left out of fantasy lineups. With that in mind, Cunningham's return could result in a dip in production from Dennis Schroder, who has amassed double-digit scoring performances in five of his last six appearances, all as a starter.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (lower leg) won't play on Saturday against Memphis. He recently had 21 points, 18 rebounds, and four blocks in Friday's win over the Raptors. He'll sit this one out, but fantasy managers are hoping things aren't too serious. With Tobias Harris (heel) also out, the team will look to Isaiah Stewart and Ausar Thompson to handle most of the minutes at the four and the five spots, giving them both higher fantasy ceilings on Saturday night.
