Marcus Sasser Fantasy Stats

Detroit Pistons point guard Marcus Sasser (hip) will be active against the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday night. The young guard has been upgraded from probable to available. Sasser will serve as the backup to Daniss Jenkins at the point guard position and is therefore not expected to make a major impact against Philadelphia. On Thursday night against Minnesota, Sasser was on the floor for only eight minutes, finishing with two points and one assist.

Detroit Pistons point guard Marcus Sasser (hip) is considered probable for Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 25-year-old is nursing a right hip strain but will likely be available to make his sixth consecutive appearance. With Cade Cunningham (lung) on the shelf, Sasser has had a chance to carve out a larger role. Unfortunately, that hasn't happened, as Sasser has been limited to 5.2 points and 2.7 assists in 12.6 minutes per game since Cunningham departed the lineup. Daniss Jenkins will remain the main beneficiary of Cunningham's absence.

Detroit Pistons guard Marcus Sasser (hip) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Sasser will shed the questionable tag and should play his normal role in the rotation on Tuesday. He finished with 12 points, four assists, and knocked down four three-pointers across 18 minutes of action on Monday. The second-year guard doesn't offer a ton of streaming value, but he's a decent source of three-pointers. He figures to continue playing minutes in the teens with the Pistons mostly healthy outside of Cade Cunningham (lung) right now.

Detroit Pistons point guard Marcus Sasser (hip) is probable for Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 25-year-old returned from a hip injury on Thursday against the New Orleans and is expected to make a second consecutive appearance. Sasser had a quiet evening on Thursday, notching seven points, two rebounds, and one assist in 16 minutes. With Cade Cunningham (lung) out, Sasser has a chance to make a bigger impact. But Daniss Jenkins, coming off a 19-point, nine-assist performance against the Pelicans, is a much more attractive fantasy option.

Detroit Pistons guard Marcus Sasser (hip) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Sasser will miss the second leg of this back-to-back set due to right hip soreness. He finished with two points and five assists across 14 minutes during Thursday's game. His absence should mean an uptick in playing time for Daniss Jenkins, Caris LeVert, and Duncan Robinson. Jenkins is expected to play heavy minutes going forward with Cade Cunningham (lung) sidelined indefinitely. He should be able to offer solid streaming value alongside LeVert and Robinson.

Detroit Pistons point guard Marcus Sasser (hip) will remain sidelined on Saturday against the Dallas Mavericks. He has yet to play this season due to right hip impingement, although Detroit initially listed him as questionable for Saturday's contest in Mexico City. Sasser averaged 6.6 points and 2.3 assists in 14.2 minutes during his sophomore year last term. He won't have much fantasy value as long as Cade Cunningham stays healthy. With Jaden Ivey (knee) also on the shelf, Daniss Jenkins will continue as the backup point guard for Detroit.

Detroit Pistons guard Marcus Sasser (hip) is unavailable for Monday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. A right hip injury has kept Sasser out of the lineup so far this season, with his next chance to suit up coming Wednesday versus the Magic. The 25-year-old averaged 6.6 points, 1.2 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 14.2 minutes per contest across 57 games last season. With Sasser, Caris LeVert (hamstring), and Jaden Ivey (knee) all sidelined, Duncan Robinson should continue to see an expanded role in the rotation, making him a potential short-term fantasy option.

On Tuesday, the NBA suspended Detroit Pistons guard Marcus Sasser (suspension) for one game, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. Sasser was thrown out in the second quarter of Sunday's contest against Minnesota after a scuffle with several players. He will be unavailable for Wednesday's matchup with the Thunder. The 24-year-old is eligible to make his return Friday versus the Raptors. Teammate Ron Holland was suspended for one game, while Isaiah Stewart was tagged with a two-game ban.

The Pistons picked up the third-year team option on guard Marcus Sasser on Monday. The 24-year-old had a decent rookie campaign in 2023-24, averaging 8.3 points and 3.3 assists (13.1 points and 4.7 assists in 11 starts). While he'll come off the bench, there is potential for some starts this season, considering Cade Cunningham has had issues staying healthy over the years. For now, Sasser shouldn't be viewed as anything more than a dynasty stash.

Detroit Pistons guard Marcus Sasser played a big role in Tuesday's 85-77 victory over Chicago in the Las Vegas Summer League, scoring 17 points on 5-for-13 shooting and registering five steals. The rest of the Pistons combined for only four steals, while Sasser tied Ronald Holland II for the second most points on the team behind Jayce Johnson's 19-point effort. Sasser went 3-for-5 with the three-ball and dished out three assists. The former Houston Cougar struggled offensively in the first couple of Summer League games but has been a menace on the defensive end, with nine steals racked up in three games. He's looking to carve out a role for the upcoming season on a new-look Pistons backcourt, which now includes Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway Jr.
