Impact Pickett will be out for a third consecutive game due to a right toe sprain. His continued absence shouldn't have an impact on the Pistons' rotation.

Jamorko Pickett - Unavailable Thursday Pickett (toe) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves.
Josh Jackson - Questionable Thursday Jackson (back) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves.
Impact Jackson has missed the last two games due to back spasms but has a chance to get back on the court Thursday. If he's unavailable, Frank Jackson and Rodney McGruder should see an uptick in playing time.

Cade Cunningham - Questionable against Minnesota Cunningham (hip) is questionable for Thursday's game against Minnesota.
Impact Cunningham sustained a right hip pointer during Tuesday's game against the Pelicans and was unable to return. If he's held out in the first half of the back-to-back set Thursday, Frank Jackson and Hamidou Diallo could see additional run.

Frank Jackson - Scores in double figures again Jackson accumulated 14 points (6-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, one block and one steal in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 111-101 loss to New Orleans.
Impact Jackson struggled from distance but was still able to notch his fourth straight game in double figures. During that stretch, he has averaged 14.0 points and 1.5 rebounds in 20.5 minutes per game. Cade Cunningham had to leave Tuesday's contest with a hip injury, so if he's forced to miss an extended period, Jackson could be in line for an increased role moving forward.

Hamidou Diallo - Efficient performance in loss Diallo ended with 12 points (6-8 FG), three rebounds, two assists and one steal over 17 minutes during Tuesday's 111-101 loss to New Orleans.
Impact With Jerami Grant back in the starting lineup, Diallo was relegated to the bench. However, he was still able to put together a solid stat line as a reserve. In 18 games off the bench, the fourth-year wing has averaged 7.1 points and 2.9 rebounds in 15.2 minutes.

Kelly Olynyk - Meager output in return Olynyk (COVID-19 protocols) totaled three points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds and six assists over 17 minutes during Tuesday's 111-101 loss to the Pelicans.
Impact Olynyk made just his third appearance since Nov. 10, and though head coach Dwane Casey said prior to the contest that the big man wouldn't face a minutes restriction, his playing time was still somewhat capped. Before his lengthy absence, Olynyk averaged 12.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.4 steals in 22.9 minutes per game. That level of production could be attainable once he has some time to shake off the rust, so Olynyk could be worth holding in 12-team leagues for a few games to see if he can recapture his prior form.
