Detroit Pistons DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Pistons are waiving forward Paul Reed. The 2020 No. 58 overall pick began his career by spending four years in Philadelphia, where he had some productive showings. But after the Sixers waived him, he was claimed by the Pistons. Unfortunately, things didn't work out in Detroit, with Reed averaging only 4.8 points in 12 games. He'll likely draw plenty of interest from clubs around the National Basketball Association, especially from teams looking to bolster depth. But regardless of where Reed lands next, he'll need minutes before earning a place on fantasy rosters.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (wrist) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. The big man was tagged as questionable coming into this game, but Duren will officially sit out due to a wrist sprain. The loss of Duren should mean an increased role for Isaiah Stewart in the rotation. Stewart has been quiet lately but figures to have more fantasy value with an expanded role on Thursday. He's worth a look as a streaming option with Duren unavailable.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (wrist) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. The big man was a late addition to the injury report due to a wrist issue. Duren missed some time in November due to a wrist sprain, so possibly this is related to his wrist sprain from last month. If Duren sits, Isaiah Stewart would likely see an increased role in the rotation. Stewart has been quiet lately, but could be worth a look as a streaming option with extra playing time.

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (hip) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Cunningham appears to be ready to return after missing four of the last five games due to a lingering hip issue. The expectation is that Cunningham will be a full-go for this game, so fantasy managers can get him back in there. Malik Beasley figures to head back to the bench and will lose some streaming appeal with Cunningham healthy again.

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (hip) will miss Saturday's game against Philadelphia as a late scratch. The Pistons star returned from a three-game absence on Friday versus Indiana with a strong double-double performance and was expected to play against the 76ers, but he heads back to the shelf. Malik Beasley will jump back into the starting lineup. The veteran has averaged 19.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in six starts this season.
