INJURIES

Moves to bench Fontecchio will move to the bench for Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
Impact The Pistons are starting Isaiah Stewart in the frontcourt alongside Jalen Duren, while Ausar Thompson will start at small forward. Fontecchio has been excellent since arriving to Detroit and is likely to play a key role off the bench.
FEBRUARY 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Scores 17 points in loss Fontecchio contributed 17 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Saturday's 112-109 loss to Orlando.
Impact Even though Fontecchio has not been able to replace Bojan Bogdanovic's contributions, there's no question he's made his presence felt while immediately grabbing a starting role. He has scored in double figures in four of his last five appearances since joining Detroit via trade, averaging 15.4 points and shooting 38.7 percent from the field from three-point range in that stretch. It's a small-sample size, but it shows he's worth targeting in most formats, particularly if he remains in a starting role.
FEBRUARY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Leads offensively as top scorer Fontecchio contributed 18 points (7-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 21 minutes during Wednesday's 116-100 loss to the Suns.
Impact Fontecchio led all Pistons players in scoring while connecting on a pair of threes as well as a team-high-tying field goal total en route to ending two points short of the 20-point mark in a losing effort. Fontecchio has recorded at least 18 points in six games this season, including in two of his last three outings.
FEBRUARY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Gets starting nod Fontecchio is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Lakers.
Impact Fontecchio will replace Mike Muscala in the starting lineup Tuesday. Fontecchio scored 20 points in 29 minutes coming off the bench in his Detroit debut but started in 34 games for the Jazz earlier this season.
FEBRUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Posts 20 points in debut Fontecchio closed Saturday's 112-106 loss to the Clippers with 20 points (8-19 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal across 32 minutes.
Impact Fontecchio made his debut after being traded from the Jazz to the Pistons one day before the trade deadline, and the small forward impressed with his instincts and shooting ability. It wouldn't be shocking if he moves into a starting role as the season progressed based on how good he looked in his debut, as his above-average shooting and floor spacing provides Detroit with another threat on offense that's similar to Bojan Bogdanovic, who was traded to the Knicks.
FEBRUARY 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Available for Saturday Fontecchio (trade pending) will be available for Saturday's game against the Clippers.
Impact Fontecchio will be available for the first time since his trade from Utah. The Pistons are in desperate need of shooters, so there's a good chance that Fontecchio carves out a nice role for himself.
FEBRUARY 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Pistons trade for Jazz forward Simone Fontecchio, add 3-point shooting DETROIT - The Pistons are trading Kevin Knox II and a 2024 second-round pick to the Utah Jazz in exchange for sharpshooting forward Simone F...
FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Out for next two games Fontecchio (trade pending) won't play Wednesday against Sacramento or Thursday against the Trail Blazers, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
Impact Fontecchio's move to the Pistons won't become official until Thursday, and the 28-year-old will have to wait at least two games before making his first appearance with his new team. Once he's able to suit up for Detroit, he'll compete for playing time with Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) and Ausar Thompson.

Pistons add Fontecchio from Jazz, deal Morris to Timberwolves before trade deadline, AP source says

The Detroit Pistons have dealt Monte Morris to the Minnesota Timberwolves and acquired Simone Fontecchio from the Utah Jazz, according to a person familiar with the deals on the ev...

Reports: Jazz trade Simone Fontecchio to Pistons The Jazz have reportedly dealt forward Simone Fontecchio to Detroit for Kevin Knox, a future second-round pick and Gabriele Procida.

FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Won't debut Wednesday Fontecchio won't play Wednesday against Sacramento since his trade to the Pistons won't become official until Thursday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Impact Kevin Knox has a trade restriction until Thursday since he didn't sign with the Pistons until Nov. 8, so Fontecchio will have to wait at least a day before making his Pistons debut. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available Thursday against the Trail Blazers.
FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Utah Jazz trade Simone Fontecchio in first trade deadline move The Utah Jazz traded Simone Fontecchio to the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday morning. Here's what they got back.
FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • SLTRIB.COM
Sent to Detroit Fontecchio was traded from the Jazz to the Pistons on Wednesday in exchange for Kevin Knox and a 2024 second-round pick, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact Fontecchio had started in 34 of Utah's last 37 games, but he had somewhat inconsistent results, averaging 10.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 26.7 minutes per game. He'll be a restricted free agent following the 2023-24 season, and it's unclear whether the Pistons will be able to retain him beyond this year. It's also unclear whether Fontecchio will be able to claim a starting role in Detroit, as the team also has Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) and Ausar Thompson.
FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Drains four treys Tuesday Fontecchio racked up 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-8 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one block in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 118-103 loss to the Knicks.
Impact Fontecchio was sharp from beyond the arc, and while he didn't do much else in other categories, at least he scored in double digits for the fifth time across Utah's last seven games. Firmly entrenched as a starter, Fontecchio is averaging 9.9 points and 4.6 rebounds while shooting 39.1 percent from deep since being promoted to a starting role.
JANUARY 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Just five points in win Fontecchio finished with five points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Saturday's 134-122 victory over the Hornets.
Impact Fontecchio ended with single digits for the first time in the past five games, adding very little in terms of supporting stats. Despite averaging just 10.3 points per game over the past two weeks, Fontecchio has managed to flirt with top-100 value. He is by no means a must-roster player but is doing enough to be considered, especially if points are not a priority.
JANUARY 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Solid in loss Fontecchio racked up 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt), seven rebounds and three assists over 29 minutes during Saturday's 127-126 overtime loss to the Rockets.
Impact Making his 12th consecutive start, Fontecchio matched his highest playing time since Jan. 8. His scoring has been inconsistent of late, but he profiles as the only true wing on Utah's roster with the ability to defend multiple positions, which should maintain his healthy rotation role moving forward.
JANUARY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Muted scoring impact Fontecchio contributed five points (2-6 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Monday's 132-116 win over the Bucks.
Impact Fontecchio's continues to start and log his normal workload, but he finds himself in a 4-for-16 mini-slump from beyond the arc over Utah's last three games. The Italian has blossomed into a relevant two-way contributor in his second season with the Jazz, however, making him a slight bounce-back candidate moving forward. Across 20 games as a starter this season, Fontecchio is averaging 11.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.1 assists while hitting 36.7 percent of his threes.
JANUARY 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Erupts for 24 points Fontecchio racked up 24 points (10-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 29 minutes during Monday's 127-90 victory over Dallas.
Impact Fontecchio started in his second straight game for the Jazz, and he matched his season-best mark of 24 points while finishing two points shy of his career high (26). The Jazz have used a lot of different starting lineups this season, but Fontecchio is making a strong case to keep his spot. In 16 total starts this season, Fontecchio holds averages of 12.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.3 three-pointers.
JANUARY 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back with starting lineup Fontecchio is starting Saturday's game against the Heat, radio voice of the Jazz, David Locke, reports.
Impact Fontecchio has come off the bench in his team's last three contests, but he'll get another opportunity with the first unit Saturday evening. He drew 14 straight starts during a stretch between Nov. 25 to Dec. 21, averaging 11.9 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 28.4 minutes (14 games).
DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Will play Thursday Fontecchio (illness) is available for Thursday's game against the Pelicans, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Impact Fontecchio was questionable for Thursday's matchup due to an illness, but he'll be able to suit up despite the issue. He's come off the bench in his last two appearances, averaging 7.0 points and 2.0 rebounds in 21.5 minutes per game.
DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy against New Orleans Fontecchio is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Pelicans due to an illness, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
Impact Fontecchio is in danger of missing his first game since Oct. 30 due to an illness Thursday. If the 27-year-old forward is ruled out, Taylor Hendricks, Ochai Agbaji and Kelly Olynyk are candidates to receive increased minutes.
DECEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Moves to second unit Fontecchio will come off the bench for Saturday's game against Toronto.
Impact Lauri Markkanen is back after missing Thursday's game against the Pistons with a hamstring issue. Fontecchio is still expected to play a significant role with the second unit. He's playing well so far this season, as he's shooting 39.7 percent from beyond the arc.
DECEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Hits for season-high 24 Fontecchio contributed 24 points (7-8 FG, 5-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 25 minutes during Thursday's 122-114 win over Portland.
Impact It was a season-best scoring effort for the second-year forward, who was making his 10th straight start as the Jazz continue to deal with the absences of Lauri Markkanen (hamstring) and John Collins (illness). Fontecchio is averaging 13.2 points, 3.8 boards, 2.6 threes, 2.2 assists and 1.5 blocks plus steals during his time in the starting five, numbers that should keep him on the fantasy radar until Utah gets healthier.
DECEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Reaches season-high mark in scoring Fontecchio contributed 19 points (7-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and four blocks across 23 minutes during Monday's 134-120 loss to the Thunder.
Impact Fontecchio has started eight games in a row for the Jazz, and he seems to be enjoying the uptick in playing time, considering Lauri Markkanen (hamstring), John Collins (illness) and Walker Kessler (foot) have been missing time of late. Fontecchio will not have the same fantasy upside as some of the names above, even if he settles into a starting role, but he might be a decent plug-and-play option if he keeps scoring in double digits regularly. On that note, Fontecchio has reached 10 or more points in five of those eight starts.
