Caris LeVert - Won't play Tuesday LeVert is out for Tuesday's game against the Nets due to a left wrist sprain.

Impact Tuesday is set to be a second consecutive absence for LeVert, who can be deemed day-to-day ahead of Thursday's tilt versus the 76ers. His absence should allow Duncan Robinson to handle a bit more playing time in the starting lineup Tuesday.

Ausar Thompson - Ruled out for Tuesday Thompson is out for Tuesday's game against the Nets with a right ankle sprain.

Impact Thompson is missing a third consecutive contest Tuesday. His next chance to play comes Thursday versus the 76ers. Marcus Sasser should continue to start for the Pistons until Thompson is cleared to retake the court.

Jalen Duren - Another strong effort Duren contributed 24 points (10-12 FG, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block over 26 minutes during Sunday's 121-110 loss to the Heat.

Impact Duren's career-best season continued Sunday despite the Pistons dropping this contest. Across 53 regular-season appearances, Duren is averaging 18.5 points, 10.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.8 blocks in 27.9 minutes per contest.

Paul Reed - Sees garbage-time run Reed registered 10 points (3-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over six minutes during Sunday's 121-110 loss to the Heat.

Impact With Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart both back in the fold for the Pistons, Reed is back to being buried as the third-string center on the depth chart. Reed has appeared in just two of Detroit's last two contests, and all of his production came in the fourth quarter of Sunday's blowout. He's averaging 8.3 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 13.6 minutes per tilt in his last seven games, shooting 58.5 percent from the field.

Javonte Green - Another pedestrian effort Green produced six points (2-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 15 minutes during Sunday's 121-110 loss to the Heat.

Impact Despite the absence of Ausar Thompson (ankle) and Caris LeVert (wrist), Green hasn't been able to claim a more prominent role. As a result, Green remains off the radar in most fantasy leagues, averaging only 5.2 points, 2.9 rebounds and 0.6 steals in 15.2 minutes per contest in his last nine games while shooting 37.2 percent from the floor during this stretch.

Kevin Huerter - Resurfacing in rotation Huerter accumulated four points (2-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 21 minutes during Sunday's 121-110 loss to Miami.

Impact After falling out of the Detroit rotation recently, Huerter has made his way back into the lineup for three consecutive games. The veteran sharpshooter's return to the mix appears to have gone hand-in-hand with the absence of Ausar Thompson, who's considered day-to-day with a right ankle sprain. Through eight contests since landing with Detroit, Huerter has averaged just 4.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 13.6 minutes per game.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Tobias Harris - Quiets down in defeat Harris contributed nine points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound and two blocks across 24 minutes during Sunday's 121-110 loss to Miami.

Impact Sunday disrupted a five-game streak with double-digit points for Harris, who did swat multiple shots for just the second time this year. The veteran forward remains a low-end fantasy option in nine-category formats -- Harris has averaged 15.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.2 assists per game in his last six contests, shooting 49.3 percent from the field and 94.7 percent from the foul line during this period.
