Pistons' Dennis Schroder: Starting sans Cunningham
Schroder will start in Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
The veteran point guard will make his first start with Detroit due to Cade Cunningham (calf) being sidelined. Over his last five outings, Schroder has averaged 11.8 points and 5.2 assists across 23.2 minutes per contest.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Late scratch Sunday
Cunningham has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pelicans due to bilateral calf soreness.
Cunningham wasn't on the injury report leading up to the contest, but he ended up being ruled out less than 15 minutes before the opening tip due to the injury. With Tim Hardaway (ankle) also sitting out, the Pistons will turn to Dennis Schroder and Malik Beasley for starts out of the backcourt. Cunningham's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against the Spurs.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Starting sans Hardaway
Beasley will start in Sunday's game against New Orleans.
The sharpshooter will return to the starting five due to Tim Hardaway (ankle) being sidelined. Beasley has made two starts in March, accumulating 29 points (11-29 FG, 7-24 3Pt), one assist and one rebound across 66 total minutes.

Pistons' Tim Hardaway: Ruled out for Sunday
Hardaway (ankle) is listed out for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
Hardaway exited Friday's 123-117 loss to the Mavericks in the second quarter due to a right ankle sprain. He was spotted in a walking boot after the contest, so Hardaway could be at risk of missing additional time beyond Sunday. Malik Beasley took his spot on the top unit to begin the second half of Friday's contest and could replace Hardaway in the starting five Sunday.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Drains five threes Friday
Beasley racked up 16 points (5-15 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, two assists, one block and one steal across 36 minutes during Friday's 123-117 loss to Dallas.
Beasley logged 36 minutes due to the absence of Tim Hardaway (ankle), who departed the game in the second quarter and didn't return, and he made the most of the opportunity. The veteran sharpshooter has been playing well this season and has been a consistent scoring weapon for the Pistons, mainly due to his three-point shooting ability. He's on an outstanding run of 20 straight games hitting two or more threes, a span in which he's averaging 16.8 points per game while shooting 44.8 percent from beyond the arc.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Perfect from field in loss
Duren chipped in 14 points (5-5 FG, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 27 minutes during Friday's 123-117 loss to the Mavericks.
Duren finished just one rebound shy of a double-double in this loss, but he had an excellent stat line across his 27 minutes of action -- he went perfect from the floor and also made his presence felt on defense with two swats. Duren has seven double-doubles in 11 appearances this month, tallying 13.7 points, 10.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.5 blocks per game in March.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Puts up 35 points in loss
Cunningham racked up 35 points (15-30 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-5 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Friday's 123-117 loss to the Mavericks.
Cunningham delivered an impressive performance and carried the Pistons offensively, but his contributions were not enough to lift Detroit to victory. The star floor general continues to play at a high level regardless of the opponent he faces, however, and he's been one of the most consistent floor generals across all fantasy formats this season -- a campaign in which several high-profile guards have missed considerable time due to injuries. Cunningham, who also posted his fourth game with at least 30 points this month, is averaging 27.3 points, 8.4 assists, 5.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game since the beginning of March.

Pistons' Tim Hardaway: In walking boot after game
Hardaway was spotted in a walking boot after spraining his right ankle in the second quarter of Friday's 123-117 loss to the Mavericks, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Hardaway finished scoreless (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) with one rebound across eight minutes before departing midway through the quarter following a collision with Dallas' P.J. Washington. Further tests will be needed to determine the severity of the injury, but Hardaway should be considered questionable, at best, for Sunday's matchup against the Pelicans.

Pistons' Tim Hardaway: Won't return Friday
Hardaway won't return to Friday's game against the Mavericks due to a right ankle sprain.
Hardaway sustained the injury during a collision with P.J. Washington midway through the second quarter. The veteran wing will finish the contest with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound in eight minutes.

Pistons' Tim Hardaway: Exits with ankle injury
Hardaway exited midway through the second quarter of Friday's game against the Mavericks due to an apparent ankle injury, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Hardaway went down in front of the Dallas bench after a collision with P.J. Washington. He was helped to the locker room and appeared to be in significant pain. The Pistons will likely provide an update on Hardaway's status coming out of halftime, but if he ends up being ruled out, Malik Beasley could open the second half with the starters.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Strong double-double
Duren had 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds and one assist over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 116-113 victory over the Heat.
Duren recorded a double-double for the fifth time across his last seven outings, and in fact, he's achieved that feat in seven of Detroit's 10 games during the current month. That two-way ability makes him a reliable fantasy option across all formats, and his two-men game with Cade Cunningham in the pick-and-roll gives him a steady dose of touches on offense as a rim finisher. Duren is averaging 13.7 points, 10.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.5 blocks per game since the beginning of March.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Fills stat sheet in win
Thompson closed with 14 points (7-10 FG), six rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 116-113 win over the Heat.
Thompson can fill out the stat sheet regularly, but it's worth noting he's not known for being a prolific scorer. This was the first time he surpassed the 10-point mark since March 3, when he recorded 17 points in a win over Utah. Thompson's upside would be considerably higher if he were a more consistent scorer, but even as things are right now, he remains a reliable option across all formats. He's averaging 10.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 blocks across 23.0 minutes per game since the beginning of March.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Sinks game-winner, triple-doubles
Cunningham registered 25 points (11-25 FG, 3-4 3Pt), 12 rebounds, 11 assists, two blocks and one steal in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 116-113 victory over the Heat.
Cunningham was the hero for the Pistons on Wednesday, sinking the game-winning three-pointer over Bam Adebayo with the clock expiring in the fourth quarter. The star floor general also recorded his ninth triple-double of the season, although this was the first time he achieved this feat since the All-Star break. He's averaging 26.5 points, 5.7 rebounds and 8.6 assists per game since the beginning of March.
