The Detroit Pistons announced guardJaden Ivey(leg) underwent successful surgery to repair a broken fibula in his left leg. According to Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site, he will be re-evaluated in four weeks. The 22-year-old was having an excellent season withCade Cunninghamin the Pistons backcourt, averaging 17.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in 29.9 minutes per game. Until Ivey can step on the floor again, the Pistons will rely upon Ausar Thompson, Marcus Sasser, Tim Hardaway, and Malik Beasley to help in their backcourt.

Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey will miss at least most of the remainder of the regular season after sustaining a broken fibula in his left leg, according to Shams Charania of ESPN. The third-year guard was having an exceptional season alongside Cade Cunningham in the Pistons backcourt, averaging 17.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in 29.9 minutes per game with a 26.6% usage rate. The former Boilermaker had only missed three games all season before Wednesday's injury, and in those games, Malik Beasley stepped into an expanded role while Cunningham's usage also rose. Ivey's injury will also open up playing time for Ausar Thompson, who is ramping up to a larger workload after a delayed start to the season.

Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey suffered a gruesome looking leg injury in Wednesday night's game against the Orlando Magic. Ivey injured his left leg when Magic guard Cole Anthony dove for a loose ball. Ivey went down immediately and was in obvious pain as the game came to a pause. The 22-year-old was stretchered to the locker room with his left leg covered in towels. Ivey had been having a fantastic game up to that point, putting up 22 points while hitting five threes. He's been a key piece to the Pistons' success this season as a great second option to Cade Cunningham while posting career highs in PPG, RPG and APG. With Ivey likely to miss considerable time, expect Ausar Thompson to get bumped into the starting rotation.

Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (knee) is available ahead of Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. As expected, Ivey will make his return to the court after missing each of the last two games due to knee inflammation. His return figures to push Ausar Thompson back to the bench where he won't have as great of streaming appeal. Also, Malik Beasley figures to lose some minutes as well with Ivey back in the picture. Ivey has been on a cold streak lately, but hopefully can turn it around on Saturday. Fantasy managers in season-long formats should feel safe about plugging him back into their lineups.

Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (knee) is currently listed as probable ahead of Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. It appears Ivey is trending towards getting back on the court following a two-game absence due to left knee soreness. If active, Ivey figures to return to his regular role in the starting five. The 22-year-old hasn't been the best fantasy option lately, but is worth holding due to his upside. Ivey is going to continue getting nearly 30 minutes per game, so hopefully he gets back into a rhythm soon. The return of Ivey would likely mean that Malik Beasley sees a reduced role.
