Pistons' Bobi Klintman: Remains out Monday
Klintman (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Raptors.
Klintman has yet to make his season debut due to a right calf injury. The 21-year-old doesn't have a set timetable for a return to game action, though his next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Grizzlies.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Doubtful for Monday vs. Toronto
Cunningham (hip) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Raptors.
Cunningham will likely miss his second consecutive contest due to a sacroiliac joint sprain in his left hip that he suffered in Thursday's loss to Charlotte. If the star point guard is sidelined once again, Malik Beasley, Marcus Sasser and Wendell Moore are candidates for an uptick in playing time.

Pistons' Marcus Sasser: Leads bench with 13 points
Sasser logged 13 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 21 minutes during Saturday's 111-100 loss to Orlando.
Sasser joined Jaden Ivey (19) and Malik Beasley (18) as the only Pistons players to score in double-digits Saturday. It was a nice bounce-back performance for Sasser, who had failed to reach double-digit points over his last four games, including a scoreless effort against the Hornets on Thursday. Sasser's 21 minutes of playing time was due to Cade Cunningham's (hip) absence, and the former could see extended playing time against the Raptors on Monday if Cunningham remains sidelined.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Team-high 19 points Saturday
Ivey posted 19 points (6-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 28 minutes during Saturday's 111-100 loss to the Magic.
Ivey and Malik Beasley were the only two Pistons starters Saturday to reach double-digit scoring as the offense stalled without Cade Cunningham (hip). Since and including Nov. 1, Ivey has averaged 16.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.4 assists over 30.8 minutes per game, though he's shooting just 41.0 percent from the field on 14.4 field-goal attempts per game over that span.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Scores 18 points Saturday
Beasley finished with 18 points (7-12 FG, 4-9 3Pt), one rebound, four assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Saturday's 111-100 loss to the Magic.
Beasley was reinserted into the Pistons' starting lineup Saturday due to Cade Cunningham being sidelined with a left hip injury. Beasley finished as the Pistons' second-leading scorer behind Jaden Ivey (19) and the former tied Isaiah Stewart for most assists on Detroit. Beasley has scored at least 15 points in each of his last nine games, and over that span, he has averaged 20.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.9 assists over 33.0 minutes per game.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Starting vs. Orlando
Beasley is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Magic.
Beasley will get promoted to a starting role due to the absence of Cade Cunningham (hip), and he'll presumably slot in at shooting guard with Jaden Ivey taking over the playmaking duties. Beasley has made three starts this season and is averaging 24.0 points per game while shooting 50 percent from deep in those contests.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Available to make season debut
Thompson (illness) is available to make his season debut in Saturday's game against the Magic.
Thompson will finally make his season debut Saturday, and his return to the rotation should boost the Pistons' second-unit depth enormously. He averaged 8.8 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 steals per game as a rookie, and he should see minutes right away for a rebuilding Pistons team that can certainly use his versatility on both ends of the court.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Won't play against Orlando
Cunningham (hip) is out for Saturday's game versus the Magic.
Cunningham will miss Saturday's contest due to a sacroiliac joint sprain in his left hip he suffered against Charlotte. In his absence, Marcus Sasser, Wendell Moore and Malik Beasley are all candidates to receive increased playing time. Cunningham's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Toronto.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Questionable for Saturday
Thompson (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Magic.
Thompson has been upgraded to questionable, which is a step in the right direction as the second-year forward regains his conditioning. The 21-year-old has yet to make his season debut, though he is seemingly nearing a return to game action.

Pistons' Wendell Moore: Solid outing off bench
Moore recorded seven points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 21 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 overtime loss to Charlotte.
Moore is averaging just 4.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 15.1 minutes across seven appearances this season. However, the 23-year-old forward is making the most of his playing time by shooting 63.2 percent from the field. With Cade Cunningham (hip) exiting Thursday's contest early, Moore could receive increased playing time if Cunningham is forced to miss any future contests.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Grabs nine boards Thursday
Duren posted five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds and one steal in 24 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Hornets.
The big man was limited in the loss while playing fewer minutes than Isaiah Stewart for the second time in the club's last three outings. Duren posted nine-plus rebounds for the 10th time this season, though he scored five or fewer points for the fifth time over 15 regular-season appearances. In his last five outings, the 21-year-old has averaged 10.4 points, 11.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists while shooting 64.7 percent from the field across 26.4 minutes per game.

Pistons' Isaiah Stewart: Productive in loss Thursday
Stewart closed Thursday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Hornets with 13 points (5-5 FG, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes.
The big man tied his second-highest scoring mark of the year while surpassing Jalen Duren in playing time for the second time in the club's last three games. Stewart scored in double figures for the first time since Nov. 12, and he stuffed the stat sheet while shooting a perfect 100 percent from the field. In his last five outings, the 23-year-old has averaged 8.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.4 blocks while shooting 68.0 percent from the field across 22.2 minutes per game off the bench.

Pistons' Marcus Sasser: Held scoreless in loss Thursday
Sasser had zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two assists and one rebound across nine minutes during Thursday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Hornets.
The 24-year-old went scoreless for the first time since Nov. 3, and he saw a decrease in playing time from his average of 10.7 minutes per game despite Cade Cunningham exiting the game with a hip injury. Across his last five outings, Sasser has averaged 5.8 points, 1.2 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 14.0 minutes per game.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Struggles with shot in OT loss
Beasley recorded 16 points (5-15 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one assist over 34 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Hornets.
Beasley had a chance to win the game in regulation for the Pistons not once, but twice, in the final seconds, but he couldn't sink two attempts from close range. Despite the efficiency issues, Beasley had another strong showing, and he remains a solid fantasy performer regardless of whether he starts or comes off the bench. Beasley's streak of games with at least 20 points ended in this loss, but he's riding another streak since he's scored at least 15 points in eight consecutive appearances.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Strong showing Thursday
Harris ended Thursday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Hornets with 26 points (10-16 FG, 6-9 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal across 31 minutes.
Harris finished just two rebounds away from recording what would've been his third double-double of the season, and the veteran forward continues to leave his mark on both ends of the court for a rebuilding Detroit team. It's worth noting that Harris has finished two boards or fewer shy of a double-double in three of his last five contests. Plus, this 26-point output represented a season-high mark for the 14-year veteran. Harris should be in line for an uptick in his usage rate if Cade Cunningham (hip) is forced to miss time.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Poor shooting Thursday
Ivey amassed 11 points (3-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals in 24 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Hornets.
Ivey has scored in double digits in his last five appearances, but the numbers don't tell the whole story in his case. He's failed to score at least 15 points in three of his last four contests in that span while shooting a meager 20-for-55 from the field in that four-game stretch. Ivey should remain a consistent performer for the Pistons, and while the efficiency issues limit his fantasy upside a bit, he could be in line for a bigger role in the short term if Cade Cunningham (hip) is forced to miss time.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Exits with hip injury
Cunningham has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the Hornets due to a left hip injury. He totaled 27 points (9-26 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 7-9 FT), seven rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 37 minutes before departing.
Cunningham suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter of Thursday's matchup and was quickly ruled out by the team's medical staff. Jaden Ivey should serve as Detroit's primary facilitator for the rests of the contest.
