Thon Maker Doesn't Receive Qualifying Offer

Detroit Pistons center Thon Maker was not extended a qualifying offer by the organization. The former 10th overall selection during the 2016 NBA Draft has been unable to live up to expectations. He wasn't able to make much of an impact during his 60 games in Detroit last season. The Pistons have decided to move on and Maker isn't expected to have a big market value. Maybe, he'll get a bench spot somewhere, but it's unlikely going to be significant enough to draft him in fantasy leagues.

Thon Maker On Track To Suit Up For Wednesday’s Game

Detroit Pistons power forward/center Thon Maker (foot) has been listed as probable to play in Wednesdays contest versus the Oklahoma City Thunder. Maker missed Sundays game, but had seen his role take a significant downturn over the last two contests that he was available to participate in. John Henson appears to have jumped Maker in the teams rotation for the time being, limiting his fantasy outlook, even in DFS. The relative lack of depth in the Pistons frontcourt could ultimately pave a route for Maker to again become a fantasy option, but owners are best served waiting for his minutes to trend upward before diving back in.

Thon Maker Could Sit Out on Sunday

Detroit Pistons center Thon Maker (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He saw six minutes during Tuesday's game and then eight minutes during Friday's contest. Possibly, the right ankle issue is the reason why he's not playing much. His fantasy value is heading in the wrong direction, but he could see more minutes with Christian Wood (foot) questionable on Sunday. However, it seems unlikely that Maker would see enough minutes to warrant ownership in most formats. Sekou Doumbouya or even John Henson are better fantasy options than Maker.

Thon Maker Continues Stellar Play With 18 Points

Detroit Pistons forward Thon Maker compiled 18 points, two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal during 27 minutes in the 116-112 overtime loss to the Magic on Wednesday. Maker is making a run at fantasy relevance, and this marks the third time in four games that the 22-year-old has scored in double digits. He has only scored in double digits six times this season before this current mini hot streak. Of course, the former Buck is just one of the few beneficiaries of Andre Drummond leaving the team. Though Maker should be on the fantasy radar, wait a few more games just to make sure he is developing the type of consistency a solid fantasy player should display. Nevertheless, the third-year player could reach fantasy relevance after the All-Star break, in part due to Detroit's lack of a true center and the fact thatBlake Griffin (knee) is out for the season.

Thon Maker Records Career-High 12 Rebounds In Double-Double

Detroit Pistons power forward/center Thon Maker collected the second double-double of his career during Mondays defeat to the Charlotte Hornets, setting a new career high with 12 rebounds in the process. Maker appears entrenched as the teams starting center moving forward, and while he saw just 24 minutes Monday, he shot 5-for-10 from the field and collected 12 points to go along with two blocks. He will likely need to string together multiple outings in the same ilk before he draws considerable season-long intrigue, but he holds solid DFS value Wednesday as he will likely be tasked with slowing Magic center Nikola Vucevic, paving the way for ample rebounding opportunities.

Thon Maker Notches Season-High 19 Points During Start

Detroit Pistons power forward/center Thon Maker rejoined the starting five for Fridays defeat to the Oklahoma City Thunder and collected a season-best 19 points on 7-for-12 shooting overall. With Andre Drummond traded to Cleveland, Maker appears in line to enjoy not only the benefits of starting, but of having unimpeded access to contributing on both ends of the floor. After back-to-back scoreless efforts his last two times out, Maker knocked down multiple threes for the first time this year. He also pitched in with seven rebounds and two assists across his 34 minutes, as he formally made a bid for a roster spot in medium-sized formats moving forward.

Thon Maker Posts Decent Stat Line In 17 Minutes

Detroit Pistons forward Thon Maker only played in 17 minutes of a 115-100 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers but still had a solid stat line. Maker tallied nine points, six rebounds, two assists, one triple, one block, and one steal. He and teammate Christian Wood have formed a sort of committee to replace Blake Griffin (knee) though Wood possesses more upside. Still, it's hard to ignore Maker's per 36-minute averages of 12.8 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.8 blocks, 1.5 assists, and 1.1 steals per game. At this point, it's better to have Wood on a roster than Maker, though the latter would be a good option if something happened to the former.

Thon Maker Records First Career Double-Double

Detroit Pistons power forward/center Thon Maker was thrust into a starting role for Wednesdays win over the Sacramento Kings and he took advantage of the increased workload by notching the first double-double of his career. The vast majority of Makers offensive damage came from the free-throw stripe, where he finished 8-for-11 en route to 10 points. He also snatched 10 rebounds across his 23 minutes, adding in a pair of blocked shots. Its tough to see Makers path to being rostered in season-long formats, but should Andre Drummond remain sidelined Friday against Memphis, Maker could be an intriguing DFS play with some upside.

Thon Maker Disappoints In Another Start

Detroit Pistons forward/center Thon Maker made another start on Wednesday with Blake Griffin (knee) remaining on the sidelines, but he still couldn't leave his mark on the series, missing all three attempts from deep and shooting just 2-for-9 from the field for four points in 21 minutes. He helped out defensively with two blocks and had three assists, but Maker has failed to take advantage of the opportunity to prove his worth to Milwaukee, who traded him in February. Griffin was at the shootaround on Wednesday and according to reports, he was pushing to play in Game 2, but he was seen wearing a big brace on his injured left knee, so his status for Game 3 is still very much in the air. Maker will likely continue to start in his absence.

Thon Maker Draws Start, Scuffles From Deep

Detroit Pistons power forward/center Thon Maker started in place of the injured Blake Griffin during Sundays loss to the Milwaukee Bucks and shot 2-for-10 from the floor overall, including 0-for-6 from deep. Maker continues to boast tantalizing DFS potential so long as Griffin remains out of the fold, but the big man has simply been unable to find production during his time on the floor as of late. He played 22 minutes Sunday and finished with four points and four rebounds. His price tag will likely remain low ahead of Game 2 on Wednesday, which should continue to make him a punt-play option.
