| Tue Mar 31 | 19:24 | Jalen Duren is Back in Action on Tuesday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Duren is back in action after sitting out Monday's game due to knee injury management reasons. With Duren back in the mix, Paul Reed should see a reduced role in the rotation. Reed finished with 21 points and 10 rebounds across 34 minutes on Monday. His streaming value will take a hit with Duren back in the mix. Fantasy managers should double-check their lineups and make sure Duren is active ahead of tip-off. |

| Mon Mar 30 | 19:28 | Jalen Duren to Sit Out on Monday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. As expected, Duren will sit out the front end of this back-to-back set due to rest purposes. The expectation is that Duren will return for Tuesday's game, but fantasy managers should check back ahead of that game to confirm. The Pistons are shorthanded right now, so Paul Reed figures to play a big role during Monday's game. When he gets significant playing time, Reed is usually productive, so fantasy managers should be able to trust him as a streaming option here. Ron Holland II and Javonte Green should also see increased roles in the rotation on Monday. |

| Sun Mar 29 | 18:42 | Jalen Duren Unlikely to Play Monday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) is considered doubtful for Monday's clash against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The first-year All-Star has played through a right knee injury recently and appears to be trending toward a rest day. Detroit's frontcourt is still without Isaiah Stewart (calf), so it could be a big night for Paul Reed. The former G League MVP is poised to make his ninth start of the season. In a starting role, Paul has provided 13.9 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.8 blocks, and 1.2 steals per game. There could also be a significant role for Tolu Smith. |

| Fri Mar 27 | 19:52 | Jalen Duren May Sit Saturday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against Minnesota after playing through injury tags in recent outings. If he sits, Paul Reed could move into the starting lineup with Isaiah Stewart (calf) still out. Reed had eight points, three rebounds, and one steal in 14 minutes Thursday and would be a deep league streamer if Duren sits. Tobias Harris (hip) and Ausar Thompson (ankle) could also benefit if cleared, with both currently carrying injury tags. |

| Thu Mar 26 | 18:36 | Jalen Duren is Upgraded to Available |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) has been upgraded to available ahead of Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. As expected, Duren is cleared to play after being listed as probable with a minor knee issue. Despite the minor injury, Duren will be out there for the second leg of this back-to-back set. Duren is one of the best centers in the league, so fantasy managers make sure he's active in their lineups. He's averaging 19.3 points, 10.6 rebounds, and 1.7 assists across 28.0 minutes per game this season. The 22-year-old has been asked to take on a larger role offensively since Cade Cunningham (lung) went down. |

| Wed Mar 25 | 18:58 | Jalen Duren Available Against Hawks |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) will be in the lineup on Wednesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Detroit added Duren to the injury report earlier in the day, but he will suit up for the first game of a back-to-back. The fact that Duren was a late addition to the injury report could indicate he might be held out of action on Thursday against New Orleans. With Isaiah Stewart (calf) out, Duren plays a crucial role in the frontcourt, averaging 23.4 points and 9.6 rebounds over his last six outings. |

| Wed Feb 11 | 15:36 | Jalen Duren Picks Up Two-Game Suspension |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren has been suspended for two games for his role in a brawl between the Pistons and Hornets on Monday. Duren was part of the initial scuffle between the two teams, which spread into a widespread fight. Charlotte's Moussa Diabate (two games), Miles Bridges (four), and Detroit's Isaiah Stewart (seven) also picked up suspensions for their roles in the brawl. Duren won't play Wednesday night against the Raptors or against the Knicks on February 19th. He will, however, be eligible to play in the All-Star Game on Sunday. Backup center Paul Reed will see a heavy uptick in minutes with Duren and Stewart away from the team. |

| Tue Feb 10 | 08:11 | Jalen Duren, Isaiah Stewart Ejected After Brawl |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren and forward/center Isaiah Stewart were ejected from Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The two were involved in a brawl that erupted midway through the third quarter after Duren butted heads with Hornets big man Moussa Diabate and pushed him in the face. Stewart joined the altercation off the bench and appeared to throw multiple punches at Hornets forward Miles Bridges. The ugly incident is likely to result in multiple suspensions. Duren returned from a knee injury and was having a great game before he was kicked out. He finished with 15 points and five rebounds in 20 minutes. Paul Reed's workload increased after the ejections, as he finished with 12 points, three rebounds, and two steals. |

| Sun Feb 8 | 19:15 | Jalen Duren Probable Versus Charlotte |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) is considered probable for Monday's clash with the Charlotte Hornets. He didn't suit up on Friday night in the 118-80 win over the New York Knicks. As a result, Isaiah Stewart got the start, finishing with 15 points. Paul Reed was also more involved than usual, amassing 12 points, six boards, four assists, one block, and one steal in 26 minutes. With Duren anticipated to return to the lineup, Stewart's ceiling will be lower, although he'll remain a viable starting fantasy option. On the other hand, Reed won't offer much upside. |

| Fri Feb 6 | 19:18 | Jalen Duren is Ruled Out for Friday's Game |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Duren was forced to make an early exit from Thursday's contest due to a knee injury. As a result, Duren was questionable coming into this game and will ultimately sit out. Without Duren available, Isaiah Stewart figures to move into the starting five. Stewart has been an inconsistent fantasy contributor this season. He should be a safer option on Friday, given Duren is unavailable. He could be worth a look for fantasy managers seeking an option for Friday's slate. Ronald Holland II and Paul Reed could also see more minutes, but Stewart is probably the best option among the three. |

| Thu Feb 5 | 20:57 | Jalen Duren Exits Early Thursday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (knee) won't return to Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. He managed only four points and three rebounds in 13 minutes during the first half before being ruled out for the rest of the contest due to right knee soreness. Ron Holland II started the second half in Duren's place. Paul Reed will help fill the center minutes behind Isaiah Stewart. Hopefully, this isn't a serious injury for Duren, as he's been having a great year. Across 42 outings, Duren has averaged 18.0 points and 10.7 rebounds. |

| Thu Jan 15 | 07:15 | Jalen Duren on Track to Return Thursday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) is considered probable for Thursday's matchup against the Phoenix Suns. He has been out for four games due to a right ankle sprain. Isaiah Stewart (illness) is also expected back on Thursday, pushing Paul Reed further down the depth chart. At the same time, Tolu Smith may end up outside the rotation. Duren is having a big campaign, averaging 17.9 points and 10.6 rebounds. However, he has managed a double-double only once in his last four appearances. |

| Fri Jan 9 | 19:37 | Jalen Duren to Miss Fourth Straight Game Saturday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Los Angeles Clippers. He continues to nurse a right ankle sprain sustained during New Year's Day's game against the Miami Heat. Isaiah Stewart's workload has significantly increased during Duren's absence. After initially struggling as a starter, Stewart finally came through for fantasy managers on Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls. The 24-year-old scored a career-high 31 points on 14-for-17 shooting. Stewart has a good chance to do more damage on Saturday against one of the league's weakest defensive squads. |

| Sun Jan 4 | 08:57 | Jalen Duren to Miss at Least One Week with Ankle Injury |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) will be re-evaluated in one week after spraining his ankle during Thursday's loss to Miami, sidelining him for at least that span. With Duren and Tobias Harris (hip) out, Isaiah Stewart and Paul Reed should absorb most of the frontcourt minutes. Stewart has averaged 9.8 points and 2.4 blocks in 23.8 minutes over his last five. Reed is expected to see an expanded role after previously posting 19.0 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.0 steals, and 2.0 blocks in two starts. Ron Holland II may see additional minutes, though his fantasy production has been unreliable. |

| Thu Jan 1 | 21:23 | Jalen Duren Won't Return Thursday After Ankle Injury |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) will not return to Thursday's game against Miami after suffering a right ankle sprain. Duren logged 18 minutes before exiting, finishing with 12 points, five rebounds, and one steal after briefly attempting to play in the second half. With Tobias Harris (hip) still out, Detroit is thin up front. Paul Reed becomes a deep-league streaming option if Duren misses time, averaging 19.0 points, 10.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 3.0 steals, and 2.0 blocks in two starts. Isaiah Stewart and Ron Holland II could also see expanded roles. |

| Mon Dec 22 2025 | 21:02 | Jalen Duren Available for Monday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (shoulder) is off the injury report and available to play against the Portland Trail Blazers. Duren played fewer minutes in their previous game against the Charlotte Hornets but was listed as probable heading into Monday night's game. The 22-year-old is having a breakout season, averaging 18 points, 11 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 29 minutes per game. With the fourth-year center set to play against the Blazers, Isaiah Stewart has limited value coming off the bench. Duren is a sure-fire start for fantasy managers against one of the worst defenses in the NBA. |

| Mon Dec 22 2025 | 08:45 | Jalen Duren Probable for Monday vs Portland |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (hip) is listed as probable for Monday's game against Portland. The fourth-year big man has averaged 14.4 points, 10.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.8 blocks, and 29.0 minutes over his last five, continuing to anchor Detroit's interior. The hip contusion adds mild risk, but his role and workload remain intact. Isaiah Stewart holds limited streaming appeal if Duren is capped, while Cade Cunningham continues to benefit from Duren's screening and finishing. Duren remains a clear hold in all formats. |

| Mon Dec 1 2025 | 18:36 | Jalen Duren Back in the Lineup on Monday Evening |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (leg) will play on Monday versus the Hawks after sitting out Saturday's 138-135 win over the Miami Heat. The 22-year-old has looked terrific this season despite missing three games, averaging a career-high 19.5 points and 11.8 rebounds with 1.1 blocks. He'll make his return against a Hawks team that won't have Kristaps Porzingis (illness), which could certainly increase his fantasy ceiling. Duren's presence should mean Isaiah Stewart, who had nine points and eight boards on Saturday, will head back to the bench. |

| Sun Nov 30 2025 | 21:20 | Jalen Duren Likely to Return Against Hawks Monday |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (leg) is labeled as probable on the injury report for a game against the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night. Detroit's double-double machine was unavailable when the team completed a back-to-back on Saturday against the Miami Heat. Isaiah Stewart had a quiet outing as Duren's replacement in the starting lineup and will be back on the bench on Monday. Duren missed a double-double in his first meeting with the Hawks this season but had one of his highest scoring games of the campaign, netting 24 points with an 8-for-12 effort from the field. As a result of Duren's return, Paul Reed will likely play a miniscule role on Monday, despite his impressive double-double performance against Miami. |

| Sat Nov 29 2025 | 18:07 | Jalen Duren Won't Play Versus Miami |
Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (leg) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game in Miami. The 22-year-old has played well this season, most recently amassing 16 points, 12 rebounds, four blocks, and one steal in Friday's NBA Cup loss to the Orlando Magic. However, availability is once again becoming a concern, with Duren now missing his third contest of the 2025 campaign. Fantasy managers will need to wait and see if he'll be back on Monday against the visiting Atlanta Hawks. Isaiah Stewart, averaging 12.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks in five starts this season, is the favorite to replace Duren in the rotation versus a Heat team that has won their last six contests. |
