GAME LOG

Saddiq Bey - Turns in stellar game in OT win Bey racked up 28 points (11-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds and three assists over 39 minutes during Sunday's 127-126 overtime win over the Hornets.
Impact Although Bey's fantasy production carries some variance, his upside is immense, especially when on a hot shooting streak. In February, he notched several excellent performances, averaging 17.2 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists over 12 games.
FEBRUARY 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kelly Olynyk - Hits game-winner in OT win Olynyk posted 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two steals in 24 minutes during Sunday's 127-126 overtime win over the Hornets.
Impact Olynyk found himself in unfamiliar territory in the closing seconds, but his fadeaway jumper marked the first game-winning score of his nine-year career. Coming into Sunday's game, Olynyk was in an abysmal scoring drought, averaging only 5.2 points per game over his 11 previous contests. To the dismay of fantasy managers, Olynyk has had trouble securing more than a limited role this season, but he was aided Sunday by the absence of Marvin Bagley (ankle).

Frank Jackson - Unavailable Sunday Jackson (back) is out Sunday against the Hornets.
Impact Jackson was listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup, but he'll be forced to miss a fifth consecutive game due to a bilateral lumbar spine spasm. His next chance to suit up will be Tuesday against the Wizards.

Marvin Bagley III - Not playing Sunday Bagley (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Hornets.
Impact Bagley will sit out the second leg of the back-to-back set after he sprained his left ankle late in Saturday's 113-104 loss to the Celtics. With Bagley sidelined, Kelly Olynyk should operate as the Pistons' clear top reserve in the frontcourt, with the 30-year-old likely to see run at both power forward and center behind starters Jerami Grant and Isaiah Stewart.
FEBRUARY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Frank Jackson - Iffy for Sunday Jackson (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
Impact Jackson hasn't played since exiting a Feb. 11 game against Charlotte with a back injury that has since been classified as a bilateral lumbar spine spasm. He looks like he'll have a shot at suiting up for the second half of the Pistons' back-to-back set Sunday, but an official decision on his status may not arrive until shortly before the 7 p.m. ET tipoff.
FEBRUARY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Cory Joseph - Gets 15 points efficiently Joseph posted 15 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one block across 34 minutes Saturday in the Pistons' 113-104 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Though the 30-year-old has modest fantasy upside and doesn't necessarily align with the rebuilding Pistons' developmental timeline, he's nonetheless supplanted 2020 lottery pick Killian Hayes as the team's preferred option at point guard. After supplanting Hayes as the starter in mid-January, Joseph has continued to get the bulk of the playing time at the position, as he's now received at least 27 minutes in eight of Detroit's 11 February games.
FEBRUARY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Cade Cunningham - Erupts for 25 points Saturday Cunningham scored 25 points (11-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and added seven rebounds and three assists across 27 minutes Saturday in the Pistons' 113-104 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Cunningham has now gone three straight games without recording a steal -- he averages 1.2 per game on the season -- but fantasy managers had to be pleased with the rookie coming through with an excellent scoring performance on atypically efficient shooting. After returning from a hip injury shortly before the All-Star break, Cunningham had shot just 32.8 percent from the field in his last four games.
FEBRUARY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Isaiah Livers - Back with parent club The Pistons recalled Livers from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Sunday.
Impact Livers, who had been sidelined since Dec. 21 following surgery on his right foot, returned to action in the G League on Wednesday, totaling 13 points (4-12 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, one steal and one block in 26 minutes. The rookie second-round pick has only made one appearance at the NBA level this season, so he's unlikely to be part of the rotation if he's active Sunday in the Pistons' game against the Hornets.
FEBRUARY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Luka Garza - Recalled from G League The Pistons recalled Garza from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Sunday.
Impact Across eight contests at the G League level this season, Garza is averaging 20.4 points and 8.8 rebounds. However, the rookie center has made just four appearances at the NBA level since Jan. 6, so it's unlikely he'll garner a big enough role to have fantasy relevancy.

Detroit Free Press Foul trouble limited Cade Cunningham to 27 minutes during the Detroit Pistons' loss to the Celtics. He's had foul trouble in 4 of his last 6 games.
