Detroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (toe) remains out for Monday's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies. He's been sidelined for the Pistons' last seven games because of a toe issue. But with six contests remaining before Detroit calls it a season, the 28-year-old may not be back for the rest of the 2023-24 campaign. If Fontecchio is done, he'll end the year with averages of 15.4 points and 4.4 rebounds while shooting 42.6% from deep, the highest marks of his career. However, as far as Monday's matchup is concerned, Tosan Evbuomwan, averaging 7.8 points and 4.4 boards in five starts this season, will likely remain with the first five.
Detroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (toe) will not play in Friday's game against the Washington Wizards because of a toe contusion. He has missed the previous six games, and there has been no indication that he is close to returning anytime soon. With Fontecchio sidelined, Evan Fournier and Troy Brown Jr. are candidates to see more minutes. Tosan Evbuomwan and Chimezie Metu started as the Pistons' forwards last game and could fill the same role again on Friday.
Detroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (toe) remains out on Sunday against the Pelicans. The 28-year-old has played the best basketball of his career since he was acquired by the Pistons, averaging 15.4 points and 4.4 rebounds. But he hasn't played in a week because of a left big toe contusion. Fontecchio's next chance to play will be on Monday night in New York. But as far as Sunday's meeting with New Orleans is concerned, Tosan Evbuomwan, averaging 12.5 points and 6.0 rebounds in two starts this season, is expected to fill the void in the rotation.
Detroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (toe) won't play on Friday night versus the Boston Celtics. Fontecchio will miss his third consecutive game with the toe injury still bothering him. Detroit will likely play it safe as one of the worst teams in the league, and little at stake. Fontecchio has averaged 15.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 1.7 assists on 49% field goal shooting and 44% three-point shooting since his minutes increased after the All-Star break. Isaiah Stewart, Stanley Umude, Taj Gibson, and Ausar Thompson also being out will lead to better fantasy potential for Tosan Evbuomwan, Evan Fournier, and Troy Brown Jr. in a difficult match-up against the top team in the league.
Detroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (toe) is ruled out for Wednesday's tilt with the Indiana Pacers. He will miss his third consecutive contest with a toe contusion. The Italian forward had been solid for the Pistons in March, averaging 15.7 points in 31.9 minutes before his injury. If the 28-year-old can return soon, he could see more minutes with Ausar Thompson (medical illness) being out for the rest of the season with a blood clot. Stanley Umude will most likely be in the starting five in Fontecchio's absence.
