Jalen Duren - Won't play MondayDuren (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nuggets, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

ImpactDuren will miss a fifth consecutive game Monday, but coach Monty Williams provided an encouraging update ahead of the matchup, saying that the center has progressed to 3-on-3 work and is expected to return soon. While Duren will have a few days to recover before the Pistons face Indiana on Friday, it's unclear whether he'll be available for that matchup.

Isaiah Livers - Available MondayLivers (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Nuggets, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

ImpactWhile Livers will face a minutes restriction Monday, he'll be able to make his season debut after missing the start of the year due to a high-ankle sprain. Coach Monty Williams didn't specify the nature of Livers' minutes restriction, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the 25-year-old ramp up his workload in the near future following his lengthy absence.

Marvin Bagley III - Scores just six pointsBagley registered six points (3-4 FG), two rebounds and three assists across 15 minutes during Sunday's 142-113 loss to the Raptors.

ImpactBagley seems to be losing some ground in Detroit, and that's particularly worrying with Jalen Duren (ankle, questionable) possibly returning from a four-game absence on Monday against Denver. Bagley has been held under 16 minutes in two straight games, as the Pistons have utilized some smaller lineups with Kevin Knox at one of the forward spots. James Wiseman saw 24 minutes Sunday against Toronto, but garbage time was certainly a factor in the blowout.

Marcus Sasser - Produces nine pointsSasser notched nine points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound, six assists and one steal over 21 minutes during Sunday's 142-113 loss to Toronto.

ImpactThis was a nice bounce-back performance for Sasser after he scored a combined six points in his previous two contests. The Pistons are finally getting healthier, and it sounds like Killian Hayes (shoulder, probable) is expected to return Monday against Denver, so it won't be easy for Sasser to keep his minutes up.

NOVEMBER 20, 2023•ROTOWIRE

Stanley Umude - Breaks out with 19 pointsUmude amassed 19 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block over 25 minutes during Sunday's 142-113 loss to the Raptors.

ImpactThe 19 points mark a new career high for Umude, and he has certainly made the most of his newfound minutes due to a plethora of injuries in Detroit. Killian Hayes (shoulder) was upgraded to probable and Jalen Duren (ankle) was upgraded to questionable for Monday's game against the Nuggets, so it will be interesting to see if Umude can stay relevant.
