Tobias Harris DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris had a 15-point, 13-rebound double-double as the team tied its first-round series against the New York Knicks with a 100-94 road victory on Monday night. Harris led the Pistons with 43 minutes, shooting 6-for-11 from the field and 2-for-2 at the charity stripe. His line included one assist and one steal. It has been an impressive start to the postseason for Harris, who has averaged 20.0 points and 9.5 rebounds with 58.3 percent shooting through the first couple of games. His improved performances are a big bonus for the Pistons, who saw Harris produce mediocre efforts throughout the regular season.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (heel) will not suit up for Monday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. He has been downgraded from questionable to out, resulting in his third consecutive absence. Dennis Schroder will remain in the starting unit on Monday, while Harris' absence also elevates the fantasy value of Ausar Thompson and Malik Beasley. Harris has played in only one of the last five games, so it remains to be seen whether he will recover well enough from his heel injury to be available for Thursday's matchup against the New York Knicks.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (heel) is in danger of missing his third consecutive game after picking up a questionable status for Monday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. The veteran has been suffering from some soreness in his left heel. The Pistons have already clinched a playoff berth, so they're likely going to be a bit cautious with only four games remaining on their schedule. If Harris is forced to miss another game, Dennis Schroder and Ausar Thompson should both continue to see a bump in usage. Malik Beasley should also keep seeing big minutes off the bench. Thompson has the highest fantasy ceiling of the three as displayed by his last game, where he posted 18 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (heel) won't play on Saturday against Memphis. He has a sore heel, so he'll miss his second-consecutive game on Saturday night. Ausar Thompson will continue to handle things at the four spot, with the 22-year-old amassing 15 points, seven boards, three steals, and two blocks in Friday's win over the Raptors. While Thompson remains a viable fantasy commodity, the return of Cade Cunningham (calf) could result in a dip in scoring opportunities.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (heel) is questionable for Saturday's game against Memphis. The veteran has been bothered by heel soreness, most recently keeping him off the floor for Friday's win over the Toronto Raptors. Detroit is heading to the playoffs, so it's possible Harris gets a few more games off in order to be ready. Fortunately, Cade Cunningham (calf) is probable, which will help lessen the blow. But if Harris remains out, Ausar Thompson and Malik Beasley, combining for 36 points versus the Raptors, should continue to receive more work, with one of them expected to stay in the starting lineup.
