Impact Bey, who sat out Sunday's loss to the Kings, will miss games Tuesday in Denver, Wednesday in Utah and Friday in Phoenix while he's back in Detroit to continue his rehab program. Once the Pistons return to Detroit on Saturday, expect another update on Bey's status to be made available. While Bey was sidelined Sunday, Isaiah Livers entered the starting five and Kevin Knox claimed a spot in Casey's rotation.

Ruled out Sunday Bey (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Kings.

Impact Bey was initially ruled out for Sunday's matchup before being upgraded to questionable. However, he'll still be forced to miss at least one game after spraining his ankle during Friday's loss to the Lakers. Hamidou Diallo could see increased run against Sacramento.

Upgraded to questionable Bey (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings.

Impact Bey, who sprained his right ankle in Friday's loss to the Lakers, was previously ruled out for Sunday's contest, but he may have showed enough improvement at morning shootaround to get an upgrade. The Pistons are already shorthanded, so Bey's potential availability Sunday -- even in a limited capacity -- would be a welcome sight.

Out Sunday Bey (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Kings.

Impact Bey injured his ankle in the fourth quarter of Friday's loss to the Lakers and will be out Sunday. Detroit is already shorthanded, with Isaiah Stewart (toe) and Cade Cunningham (shin) both out for an extended period. More minutes could be in store for Isaiah Livers, Marvin Bagley, Hamidou Diallo and Kevin Knox.

Injures ankle late Friday Bey was removed in the fourth quarter of Friday's 128-121 loss to the Lakers with an apparent right ankle issue. Pistons head coach Dwane Casey wasn't immediately sure about the se...

Impact Before departing, Bey finished with four points (2-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 21 minutes. Bey looked to be in danger of moving into a permanent bench role after Marvin Bagley made his season debut last weekend, but the right toe sprain that Isaiah Stewart suffered in Monday's loss to Toronto reopened a spot in the starting five for Bey. If Bey is unable to suit up in Sunday's game in Sacramento, the Pistons could turn to Isaiah Livers or Hamidou Diallo to replace him in the starting five.

Grabs eight boards in loss Bey had 11 points (4-11 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Thursday's 96-91 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Bey was just one of three Detroit players to score in double figures on Thursday as the team suffered its fifth consecutive loss. He did not take a shot in the first quarter before going 2-of-5 from the field in the second to finish with six first-half points, along with five rebounds. Bey grabbed another three boards in the second half, including two on the offensive end, to give him his second-highest rebound total of the season with eight. The Pistons forward has now scored in double figures in nine of his last 10 games, though he continues to struggle from three, shooting just 26.5 percent from beyond the arc so far this month.

Coming off the bench Monday Bey will come off the bench during Monday's contest against the Raptors, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.

Impact After starting each of the Pistons' first 14 contests to begin the season, Bey is headed to the bench in favor of Marvin Bagley on Monday. Bey has averaged 16.1 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 31.6 minutes per game thus far.

NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Leads Detroit to win Bey amassed 25 points (8-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 8-8 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 37 minutes during Monday's 112-103 victory over the Thunder.

Impact The third-year forward led the Pistons in scoring while topping 20 points for the third time in the last five games. Bey is settling in as a complementary weapon for Detroit, averaging 17.0 points, 4.8 boards, 1.9 threes and 1.5 assists through 11 contests.

Bey scores 25, Pistons' big 2nd half beats Thunder 112-103

Saddiq Bey scored 25 points, Cade Cunningham had 21 points and 11 rebounds, and the Detroit Pistons beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 112-103

Scores team-high 22 points Bey accumulated 22 points (5-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 9-10 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 116-91 loss to the Bucks.

Impact Bey has now scored in double digits in three games in a row, and while he seems to be trending in the right direction from a scoring perspective, the lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis hinders his fantasy output. He's scored at least 20 points twice in that span, though, and he's averaging 16.8 points per game across his last five contests.

Regresses in Monday's loss Bey accumulated 10 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Monday's 110-108 loss to the Bucks.

Impact The up-and-down season for Bey continued Monday, turning in another underwhelming performance. It appears he enjoys alternating strong performances with duds, something that is sure to provide managers with a lot of headaches should it continue. With that said, he does remain a 12-team asset, albeit a frustrating one.

NOVEMBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores season-high 28 points Bey accumulated 28 points (9-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds and three assists across 35 minutes during Sunday's 128-114 win over the Warriors.

Impact Bey had scored just 30 points combined over his previous three outings before Sunday's season-high 28 points. Through seven games, he's made 45.5 percent of his shot attempts, a vast improvement of his field-goal percentage over his first two years (39.9). He's not yet found the ability to consistently produce and remains a bit of a fantasy wild card night-to-night.

Improved effort in loss Bey closed with 17 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-6 FT) and four rebounds over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 118-113 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Bey at least topped double-digits in the loss, a far better performance coming off a game in which he managed just six points. Unfortunately, in typical fashion, Bey basically did nothing outside of score the basketball, something that certainly cuts into his overall value. He remains a relatively solid hold in all competitive formats but managers should just be aware that he brings nothing to the table, other than points and threes.

Records double-double in loss Bey ended Saturday's 124-115 loss to the Pacers with 20 points (5-16 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 8-8 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one steal over 36 minutes.

Impact Bey notched his first double-double of the season, recapturing some of the form that saw him vault into relevance to close the 2021-22 season. The Pistons clearly view him as a significant piece of their future, meaning his role should be guaranteed all season long. Efficiency from the floor will continue to be an issue but that should not be a surprise for anyone who took a shot at him.

Leading scorer in Friday's loss Bey finished Friday's 130-106 loss to the Knicks with 26 points (9-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, one block and one steal over 33 minutes.

Impact The third-year forward led all scorers on the night, but New York's superior depth won out. Bey bounced back from a quiet opener, and after a solid 2021-22 campaign he seems on track to take another modest step forward with his production this season.
