Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Fills stat sheet admirably
Thompson ended Friday's 133-122 win over the Cavaliers with 18 points (8-18 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, four blocks and two steals over 32 minutes.
Thompson has been playing at a high level of late. Even though his scoring numbers aren't eye-popping, he does enough in other categories to be a reliable fantasy alternative across all formats. Since the beginning of March, Thompson has averaged 0.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 blocks per game.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Scores 19 points in spot start
Beasley recorded 19 points (4-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Friday's 133-122 win over the Cavaliers.
Beasley got promoted to a starting role after Tobias Harris (calf) was ruled out, and the veteran sharpshooter delivered an impressive outing across the board once again. This was Beasley's seventh straight game scoring in double digits, and he's averaging 14.7 points per game while shooting 43.1 percent from three-point range in that span. Beasley has been a reliable fantasy producer, regardless of whether he starts or plays off the bench.

Pistons' Tim Hardaway: Drains seven threes vs. Cleveland
Hardaway finished Friday's 133-122 win over the Cavaliers with 32 points (10-18 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three assists and one rebound over 33 minutes.
Hardaway entered Friday's contest having shot just 37.4 percent from the field and 30.3 percent from three-point range since the beginning of March. He came out firing in the first quarter with 13 points while connecting on three triples, and his 10 points in the third quarter helped the Pistons extend their lead to 18. Hardaway's 32 points were a season high, and he'll look to carry the hot hand into Sunday's interconference clash against the Timberwolves.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Late scratch Friday
Harris has been ruled out for Friday's game against Cleveland due to a right Achilles tendinopathy.
The Achilles injury is a new concern for Harris, who hasn't missed a game since March 8. Malik Beasley will enter the starting five Friday in place of Harris, whose next chance to play will come Sunday at Minnesota.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Late addition to lineup
Beasley has been added to the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Cavaliers due to the late scratch of Tobias Harris (calf), Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Harris will miss Friday's game due to a left calf contusion, so Beasley will jump into the starting lineup, and he should handle a more prominent role on offense. The veteran sharpshooter averages 19.2 points per game while shooting 40.9 percent from three-point range when deployed in a starting role.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Considered day-to-day
Cunningham (calf), who will miss Friday's game against the Cavaliers, will be listed as day-to-day moving forward, Coty M. Davis of The Detroit News reports.
Cunningham will miss his third game in a row due to a left calf contusion, but he will continue to receive treatment and could return to action as soon as Sunday's game versus Minnesota. Dennis Schroder is expected to start at point guard until Cunningham returns to the lineup.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Ruled out for Friday
Cunningham (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.
Cunningham will miss a third straight game Friday while dealing with a contusion on his left calf. The Pistons will likely continue to lean on veteran guard Dennis Schroder to shoulder the load in the backcourt, with Marcus Sasser potentially getting more time off the bench for Detroit.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Productive in 27 minutes
Thompson posted 14 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 122-96 victory over the Spurs.
March has been a quiet month overall for Thompson, but Tuesday's game was one of his better performances. Over his last 13 games, Thompson has averaged just 21.1 minutes per contest with 9.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks on 54.2 percent shooting from the field. His per-minute production makes him worth holding onto in most leagues.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Tallies seven assists in win
Duren ended Tuesday's 122-96 win over San Antonio with 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-5 FT), seven assists and four rebounds over 24 minutes.
Duren tied his career-high mark in assists during his limited run in Tuesday's blowout win. The third-year big man has now dished out at least five dimes in 12 outings this season, including twice in his last five games. Duren's seven assists were also a game high, and he chipped in double-digit points for a fourth consecutive contest as well.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Full stat line in victory
Harris totaled 15 points (4-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, three steals and one block across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 122-96 win over the Spurs.
Harris finished with game-high marks in rebounds and steals Tuesday, recording multiple swipes for the 16th time on the season. Additionally, the veteran forward finished as the club's second-leading scorer behind Marcus Sasser (27 points). Harris has scored in double figures in three of his last five appearances, during which he has averaged 12.0 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2.0 steals across 30.8 minutes per game.

Pistons' Marcus Sasser: Career-high 27 points in victory
Sasser produced 27 points (9-12 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 122-96 victory over the Spurs.
Sasser led the Pistons with a game- and career-high mark in points while coming off the bench Tuesday. The 24-year-old has played at least 20 minutes in each of the club's last two outings due to Cade Cunningham (calf) being sidelined. Sasser has accumulated 47 points, five rebounds, three assists and two steals across 52 total minutes in those two games. The second-year combo guard could carve out a more prominent role off the bench after this stretch considering he had averaged only seven minutes per game across seven appearances since the All-Star break entering Sunday's win over New Orleans.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Retreating to bench Tuesday
Beasley won't start in Tuesday's game against the Spurs, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
The sharpshooter will slide to the bench due to Tim Hardaway (ankle) returning to game action. Beasley has appeared in 12 outings (three starts) this month, averaging 13.9 points, 3.5 three-pointers, 1.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists across 28.4 minutes per contest.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Won't go Tuesday
Cunningham (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against San Antonio.
Cunningham will miss his second consecutive contest due to a left calf contusion. The star point guard's next chance to suit up will come Friday against the Cavaliers. Dennis Schroder is expected to draw the start at point guard once again, and Marcus Sasser will likely receive an uptick in playing time off the bench while Cunningham is out.

Pistons' Tim Hardaway: Available against San Antonio
Hardaway (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game against the Spurs.
After suffering an ankle injury in Friday's game against the Mavericks and missing the subsequent contest Sunday against the Pelicans, Hardaway is cleared to return from a one-game absence. With Cade Cunningham (calf) sidelined Tuesday, a few extra shots should fall in Hardaway's direction. The veteran swingman has averaged 8.9 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.8 steals in 25.0 minutes across 11 games this month.

Pistons' Tim Hardaway: Listed as questionable
Hardaway (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Spurs.
Hardaway missed Sunday's game against the Pelicans after picking up his ankle injury Friday. The questionable tag suggests that he's day-to-day, however. If Hardaway is unable to give it a go, Malik Beasley is likely to draw another start for Detroit.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Iffy for Tuesday
Cunningham (calf) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Spurs.
Cunningham missed Sunday's game against the Pelicans due to bilateral calf soreness, and the star playmaker remains day-to-day for Detroit. Tim Hardaway (ankle) is also questionable for Detroit. If the Pistons are shorthanded once again, there will be more opportunities for Dennis Schroder and Malik Beasley.
