James Wiseman - Operates as primary backup Wiseman ended Monday's 126-107 loss to the Wizards with eight points (3-4 FG, 2-4 FT) and four rebounds over nine minutes.
Impact With Jalen Duren reclaiming his spot in the starting lineup, coach Monty Williams had a decision to make regarding his backup center. Marvin Bagley had clearly moved ahead of Wiseman to start the campaign, but the former didn't see any action Monday while the latter was solid in limited work. It's unclear if this was a permanent move, but either way, both Bagley and Wiseman won't have significant fantasy value as long as Duren is healthy.

Marvin Bagley III - Left out of rotation Bagley didn't play in Monday's 126-107 loss to Washington due to a coach's decision, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.
Impact Bagley appeared in each of the Pistons' first 16 games (six starts), averaging 10.9 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 19.1 minutes per game. However, Detroit is in the midst of a double-digit losing streak, so coach Monty Williams opted to shake things up and gave James Wiseman a shot in the rotation. Wiseman was solid in limited work, recording eight points (3-4 FG) and four rebounds in nine minutes, but it's unclear how the backup center rotation will shake out now that Jalen Duren is healthy.

Ausar Thompson - Scores 16 points in loss Thompson contributed 16 points (8-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 28 minutes during Monday's 126-107 loss to the Wizards.
Impact Thompson's rebounding total was his lowest of the campaign, but he had a nice night offensively, finishing as Detroit's second-leading scorer. This was his first double-digit scoring effort over his past five games, and his 14 field-goal attempts were the most he has taken in a contest since Nov. 5. Thompson isn't yet a consistent scorer, but he's provided a well-rounded skill set, averaging 11.4 points, 9.5 boards, 3.1 assists, 1.7 blocks and 1.1 steals over 30.3 minutes through 17 games.
NOVEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Cade Cunningham - Racks up 26 points Monday Cunningham notched 26 points (10-22 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Monday's 126-107 loss to Washington.
Impact Cunningham led Detroit in the scoring in the loss, as he was the only Piston to exceed 16 points. The third-year point guard also tied for the team lead in assists and committed just one turnover after averaging 4.4 turnovers over his previous five contests. Cunningham still has the worst mark in the league with 4.5 turnovers per game on the season, but he's shown plenty of growth elsewhere, as his averages of 22.2 points, 7.1 dimes and 1.9 triples are each on pace to be a career-best mark.
NOVEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Duren - Posts big effort in loss Duren chipped in 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-5 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists, five blocks and one steal across 33 minutes during Monday's 126-107 loss to the Wizards.
Impact Duren returned from a five-game absence Friday versus Indiana and came off the bench, but he was back in the starting lineup Monday. The big man showed that he belongs in that role with a block party against the Wizards, swatting a season-high five shots. Duren also pulled down double-digit boards for seventh time in his 10 contests on the campaign, and he's notched a double-double in each of those performances.

Jalen Duren - Returns to starting lineup Duren will start Monday's matchup versus Washington, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.
Impact Duren returned to action Friday following a five-game absence due to an ankle injury and posted 13 points, 13 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block in 29 minutes off the bench. The second-year big man has reclaimed his spot in the starting lineup Monday, but he's unlikely to play more than 30 minutes, as he averaged just 28.8 minutes per game before missing time.

Impact Bogdanovic returned to practice last week but continues to miss time. The veteran's next chance to make his season debut will arrive Wednesday versus the Lakers.

Jaden Ivey - Finishes with 25 points Ivey closed with 25 points (9-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 6-9 FT), two rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 136-113 loss to the Pacers.
Impact Ivey started the season on the bench but has started the last three games for Detroit, and his uptick in numbers has been noticeable -- he has surpassed the 15-point plateau in two of those contests. Ivey has scored in double figures in four of his last five contests.
NOVEMBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Cade Cunningham - Goes for 31 points in loss Cunningham recorded 31 points (10-26 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 9-9 FT), three rebounds and five assists across 38 minutes during Friday's 136-113 loss to Indiana.
Impact Cunningham was impressive despite the 23-point loss, and the point guard continues to enhance his role as Detroit's main offensive threat every time he steps on the court. He's taken a leap forward compared to last season and has looked productive in a struggling Pistons team, averaging 22.0 points and 7.1 assists per game.
NOVEMBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Duren - Grabs 13 boards in return Duren (ankle) registered 13 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 13 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block across 29 minutes in Friday's 136-113 loss to the Pacers.
Impact Though Detroit opted to ease Duren back from a five-game absence as a bench player, he saw a fairly standard amount of playing time and came through with an efficient double-double backed up by some contributions in the defensive categories an the second-best assist total on the team. Duren will most likely reclaim his spot in the starting five from Marvin Bagley in the Pistons' next game Monday against the Wizards. Assuming he's omitted from the injury report, Duren looks like a worthy lineup option in just about every format during the Pistons' upcoming four-game week.
