Jalen Duren DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (lower leg) will hop back into action on Monday against the Sacramento Kings. He is set to return from a one-game absence, having shaken off a questionable tag. On Monday, Duren has a chance to register his first five-game double-double streak of the season. He has averaged 15.8 points and 13.8 boards with 1.8 blocks over his past four appearances. Duren finished this season's first meeting with the Kings with 13 points and 10 rebounds. However, Domantas Sabonis, who leads the NBA in rebounding, skipped that game. Monday's battle on the boards promises to be more challenging for Duren.

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 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.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) is considered probable for Thursday's game against Sacramento. The talented big man is dealing with a right ankle sprain but is expected to play. Duren is a nightly double-double threat, averaging 9.0 points and 9.2 rebounds for the campaign with 1.1 blocks. Centers haven't been too productive against the Kings this season, but the hosts could be without Domantas Sabonis (illness) on Thursday. His absence would put Duren in a better position to perform.

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.
