Caris LeVert Won't Suit up on Sunday

Detroit Pistons guard Caris LeVert (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. LeVert will miss his third straight game after being listed as doubtful on the injury report. His next chance to play will be Tuesday versus the Denver Nuggets. The absence of LeVert should mean increased roles for Jaden Ivey and Marcus Sasser. Neither guard has great upside right now, but Ivey is the better streaming option between the two with LeVert out.

Cade Cunningham is Available on Sunday

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (wrist) is available to play ahead of Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. As expected, Cunningham will suit up for this game after being listed as probable on the injury report. He'll operate in his normal spot in the starting five. He sat out of Wednesday's game, but appears to be over the wrist injury now. Daniss Jenkins will see his value take a hit with Cunningham back in the mix. Fantasy managers should get Cunningham active in their lineups.

Cade Cunningham Likely to Play Sunday vs. Kings

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (wrist) is listed as probable for Sunday's matchup against Sacramento after returning Friday from a brief absence. The designation appears precautionary, and he is expected to handle his normal workload if cleared. Cunningham logged 12 points, eight assists, two steals, and one rebound in 38 minutes in his return, a reminder that his usage remains secure despite a recent dip in scoring efficiency. If active, Cunningham's presence pushes Daniss Jenkins back into a limited bench role after the rookie posted 17 points, four assists, two steals, and two blocks in 26 minutes as a spot starter.

Duncan Robinson is Available to Play on Friday

Detroit Pistons forward Duncan Robinson (back) has been cleared to suit up ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. Robinson was tagged as probable earlier in the day due to a lower back injury. It's not going to be significant enough to keep Robinson on the sideline. Robinson has been heating up lately, so he could be an interesting streaming option for Friday's slate. He's averaging 17.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 2.4 three-pointers in 27.7 minutes over his last five outings. He'll look to keep his hot streak alive against the Rockets on Friday night.

Ron Holland II to Play on Friday

Detroit Pistons forward Ron Holland II (illness) has been upgraded to available ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He appears to be dealing with a minor illness, but it's not significant enough to keep him sidelined. The first-rounder has been picking up his play in the New Year. This month, Holland is averaging 7.7 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.2 steals across 20.9 minutes per game in nine games. He could be worth a look as a streaming option in deep leagues for Friday's slate. He has been consistent enough to be trusted as a low-end option.

Cade Cunningham is Upgraded to Available on Friday

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (hip, illness) has been upgraded to available ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. Cunningham was able to make it through shootaround and will return to the court after missing Wednesday's contest. The return of Cunningham should shift Daniss Jenkins back to the second unit. He dropped 17 points with Cunningham sidelined, but he won't be an appealing streaming option while playing with the second unit. Cunningham has been a stud this season and needs to be started in all formats. Fantasy managers should double-check their lineups and get Cunningham active ahead of tip-off.

Duncan Robinson Listed as Probable Friday Against Houston

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Duncan Robinson (back) is probable for Friday's matchup against Houston while managing a lower back sprain. His availability is important for a Detroit rotation that remains fluid, especially with Cade Cunningham (illness) questionable. Robinson's role has stayed stable through the shuffle, as he has averaged 17.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 4.4 three-pointers in 27.7 minutes over his last five games. He logged 29 minutes with 15 points and four triples in his most recent outing, keeping him locked in as a standard-league source of points and perimeter shooting if active.

Cade Cunningham Listed as Questionable for Friday

Detroit Pistons point guard Cade Cunningham (hip, illness) is listed as questionable for Friday night's action against the Houston Rockets. He's dealing with a hip contusion and an illness, and these issues might keep Cunningham on the shelf for a second consecutive game. If that's the case, Daniss Jenkins will continue in a starting role. He totaled 17 points, one rebound, four assists, two blocks, and two steals in Wednesday's win over the Indiana Pacers. Friday's matchup will be much tougher, but Jenkins could still make some noise in a larger role.

Caris LeVert Sidelined Wednesday

Detroit Pistons shooting guard Caris LeVert (illness) won't play Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. LeVert is dealing with an illness, and his next chance to return to action is on Friday against the Rockets. Detroit's backcourt will also be without its star point guard, Cade Cunningham (hip, illness), so Jaden Ivey and Daniss Jenkins will likely see expanded roles and could be considered marginal streaming options ahead of tonight's clash in The Big Easy.

Cade Cunningham Unavailable on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons point guard Cade Cunningham (illness, hip) won't suit up against the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday. The 24-year-old is feeling under the weather, and he is also dealing with a left hip contusion. His next chance to get back on the floor is on Friday against Houston. With Cunningham out of action, Jaden Ivey, Marcus Sasser and Daniss Jenkins will likely have expanded roles in the Pistons backcourt.

Ron Holland II is Available to Play on Monday

Detroit Pistons forward Ron Holland II (illness) is available to suit up ahead of Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. Holland was a late addition to the injury report, but will ultimately play through his illness. He has been playing a bigger role in the rotation lately. Holland is averaging 8.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 21.4 minutes per game in 10 games this month. The first-rounder figures to continue playing a significant role in the rotation. His extra playing time hasn't resulted in excellent fantasy value, but he's still worth a look in deep leagues.

Paul Reed  • PF  •  Pistons

Paul Reed Available Saturday

Detroit Pistons forward/center Paul Reed (personal) will be in the lineup on Saturday against the Indiana Pacers. Due to personal reasons, Reed was initially iffy for Saturday's action. However, Detroit upgraded him to probable in the afternoon, and he has now been listed as available. Reed will return from a one-game absence. Since both Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart are healthy, Reed's playing time on Saturday may be limited to only a handful of minutes.

Ausar Thompson  • SG  •  Pistons

Ausar Thompson Good to Go Against Pacers

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Ausar Thompson (heel) has shed a probable tag and will suit up on Saturday against the Indiana Pacers. The 22-year-old is ready to play through a heel contusion. Thompson has struggled offensively in recent weeks, averaging only 8.7 points per game in January. He will look to overcome the slump on Saturday night against the Pacers, who are allowing the eighth-most points per game this season.

Cade Cunningham  • PG  •  Pistons

Cade Cunningham Cleared for Saturday's Action

Detroit Pistons point guard Cade Cunningham (wrist) will be active against the Indiana Pacers on Saturday. The team has upgraded his status from probable to available. Cunningham has been dealing with a wrist contusion in his shooting hand. He shot only 18.8 percent from the field in Thursday's win over the Phoenix Suns. However, the Pistons star is in a good bounce-back spot on Saturday, as the Pacers have not been a good team this season.

Cade Cunningham Considered Probable for Saturday

Detroit Pistons point guard Cade Cunningham (wrist) is on the injury report with a probable tag ahead of Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Cunningham returned from a right wrist injury in Thursday's win over the Phoenix Suns and is expected to make a second consecutive appearance. It's possible Cunningham was still bothered by the injury to his shooting hand against Phoenix, as he managed only 10 points with a very poor 3-for-16 efficiency. Detroit's star man salvaged his fantasy line a bit with 11 assists. If Cunningham suits up on Saturday, he'll be expected to bounce back in a much more favorable matchup.

Tobias Harris  • SF  •  Pistons

Tobias Harris Active on Thursday

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (hip) will suit up Thursday against the Phoenix Suns. Harris has missed five consecutive contests with a left hip sprain and will make his first appearance in 2026. The 33-year-old has been a regular starter throughout the 2025-26 season. Javonte Green started on Saturday versus the Clippers and will return to the bench during tonight's tilt. However, Green may still see extended playing time as Harris' minutes could be restricted in his return.

Isaiah Stewart  • PF  •  Pistons

Jalen Duran and Isaiah Stewart Set to Return Against Suns

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) will suit up against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday. He's been cleared after sitting out four games due to a right ankle sprain. Big man Isaiah Stewart (illness) has also been upgraded to available for tonight's tilt. Paul Reed could slide further down the depth chart, while Tolu Smith may end up outside the rotation with Duren and Stewart returning to action. Duren is having a big campaign, averaging 17.9 points and 10.6 rebounds, while Stewart has posted averages of 10.4 points and 5.6 rebounds across 23 outings.

Tobias Harris  • SF  •  Pistons

Tobias Harris Set for First Appearance in 2026

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (hip) is likely to rejoin the lineup on Thursday against the Phoenix Suns, as the team has listed him as probable on the injury report. Harris has yet to play in 2026, missing five games with a left hip sprain. The veteran has been a regular starter throughout the campaign. Javonte Green started on Saturday versus the Clippers and is set to return to the bench with Harris's return. However, there is also a chance Detroit eases Harris back by using him as a reserve to better manage his minutes.

Isaiah Stewart  • PF  •  Pistons

Isaiah Stewart Expected to Return Thursday

Detroit Pistons forward/center Isaiah Stewart (illness) practiced on Wednesday and is expected to rejoin the lineup on Thursday night against the Phoenix Suns, as the team has listed him as probable for the game. Stewart was unavailable on Saturday against the Los Angeles Clippers due to illness. The 24-year-old had a big 31-point outing in his last appearance, but that came as Detroit's starting center. Jalen Duren (ankle) is on track to return on Thursday and will start ahead of Stewart. As a reserve, Stewart has contributed 9.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks per game this season.

Jalen Duren  • C  •  Pistons

Jalen Duren on Track to Return Thursday

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) is considered probable for Thursday's matchup against the Phoenix Suns. He has been out for four games due to a right ankle sprain. Isaiah Stewart (illness) is also expected back on Thursday, pushing Paul Reed further down the depth chart. At the same time, Tolu Smith may end up outside the rotation. Duren is having a big campaign, averaging 17.9 points and 10.6 rebounds. However, he has managed a double-double only once in his last four appearances.
