Jalen Duren's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) will play on Tuesday against the Miami Heat. The 20-year-old tweaked his ankle during the November 6 meeting with the Charlotte Hornets and missed the last two games as a result. But now that Duren is back in the mix, fantasy managers can get him back in their starting lineups versus a Heat team that's struggled against opposing centers this season. With that in mind, his presence will result in fewer minutes for Isaiah Stewart (ankle), who was also cleared to play.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) is questionable heading into Tuesday's meeting with the Miami Heat. The 20-year-old sprained his ankle during the November 6 matchup with the Charlotte Hornets and has missed the last two games as a result. Fortunately, the questionable tag gives him a chance to play. If anything, it at least suggests he's moving in the right direction. If Duren can't suit up, Isaiah Stewart (ankle), who is probable, should continue to fill the void underneath the basket, giving him plenty of upside for fantasy managers. But if Stewart is sidelined as well, Paul Reed would see a surge in fantasy potential, even if it's only for one contest.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) is doubtful for Sunday's matchup versus the Rockets. The 21-year-old sprained his ankle in Wednesday's loss to the Charlotte Hornets, ending his night after only seven minutes of action. He didn't suit up on Friday against the Atlanta Hawks, resulting in Isaiah Stewart getting the start and finishing with a 10-point, 11-rebound double-double with one block. Assuming Duren is absent again on Sunday, Stewart will be worth starting in all fantasy setups.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) won't play in Friday's meeting with the visiting Hawks. He tweaked his ankle in Wednesday's one-point loss to the Charlotte Hornets, limiting him to just eight minutes of work. Isaiah Stewart got more involved, finishing with seven boards, six assists, one steal, and one block. Duren's next chance to get on the floor will be on Sunday versus Houston. In the meantime, Stewart is worth streaming in any fantasy format, and he'll likely draw value attention from DFS participants. In addition, Paul Reed, who had 13 points in 12 minutes versus Charlotte, should be viewed as a risky, high-upside option.

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) has been listed as doubtful ahead of the Friday night matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. The young big man originally sprained his left ankle during the game against the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday in the opening quarter. He didn't return to that game and it looks like he'll need to miss at least one game. In his place, Isaiah Stewart will likely take over the starting center spot while Paul Reed gets some minutes in relief. Stewart would serve as the better streaming option for managers in need.
