Pistons' Tobias Harris: Out for at least two more weeks
Rotowire
Harris (hip) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Harris sprained his hip in a win over the Lakers on Dec. 30, and after undergoing further evaluation, he has been ruled out for at least the next two weeks. If he can return at the two-week mark, he could be cleared to face the Pacers on Jan. 17. While Harris is sidelined, Isaiah Stewart and Ronald Holland should see expanded roles.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Unlikely to play New Year's Day
Rotowire

Harris sprained his left hip during the first quarter of the Pistons' 128-106 win over the Lakers on Tuesday, finishing with seven points and one turnover over six minutes. Isaiah Stewart started in the second half of Tuesday's win, so he and Ronald Holland would be the top candidates to enter the Pistons' starting lineup Thursday if Harris is unable to play.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Won't return Tuesday
Rotowire
Harris has been ruled out for the rest of Tuesday's game against the Lakers due to a left hip sprain.
Harris limped to the locker room during the first quarter of Tuesday's game, and after being evaluated by medical staff, it was determined that his injury was severe enough for him to be held out for the rest of the contest. Ronald Holland, Javonte Green and Isaiah Stewart are in line for more minutes for the rest of Tuesday's game in Harris' absence.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Leaves for locker room
Rotowire
Harris (undisclosed) exited to the locker room in the first quarter of Tuesday's game against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
It's unclear why Harris headed to the locker room, though he was seen with a slight limp on his way to the back. He can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light. If the veteran forward is unable to return, Isaiah Stewart and Ronald Holland are candidates to pick up the slack the rest of the way.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Paces team for 24 points
Rotowire
Harris ended with 24 points (10-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and four assists in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 136-127 win over Sacramento.
Harris took his turn as the team's leading scorer Tuesday night, and it's a milestone he's rarely reached with dynamos like Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren on the roster. Although a nine-game absence curbed his production, Harris has been effective since his return, averaging 14.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.5 assists over the past 14 games. Harris' floor is a little volatile, as occasionally Detroit's rotation fails to favor him in the second half, but he's otherwise a mainstay with the first unit.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Scoreless in 18 minutes
Rotowire
Harris registered zero points (0-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and three assists over 18 minutes during Thursday's 116-114 overtime loss to the Mavericks.
For the first time this season, Harris was held without a point. He's trending in the wrong direction for Detroit, posting averages of 10.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists on 31.7 percent shooting over his last six outings. With a large expiring contract, Harris has been the subject of many trade rumors.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Notches 15 points
Rotowire
Harris logged 13 points (4-11 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds and three assists in 32 minutes during Monday's 112-105 victory over Boston.
Injuries have limited Harris to 16 regular-season appearances so far, but even on a per-game basis in nine-category formats, he's been pretty underwhelming. In 29.3 minutes per contest, he holds averages of 14.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.6 three-pointers per tilt.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Removed from injury report
Rotowire
Harris (ankle) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Hawks.
Harris sat out Detroit's last game against the Bucks with an ankle problem, but his absence from the injury report means he's set to return Friday. The veteran forward has averaged 14.7 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 29.7 minutes per contest over 14 games this season, and Harris' presence should push Isaiah Stewart to the bench.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Out Saturday
Rotowire
Harris (ankle) will not play Saturday against the Bucks.
After previously battling a right ankle issue, Harris is now dealing with an issue to his left ankle. He was previously considered questionable, so fantasy managers can expect him to be day-to-day going forward. Caris LeVert, Ronald Holland and Isaiah Stewart could see more minutes with Harris sidelined.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Questionable for Saturday
Rotowire
Harris is questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks due to a left ankle sprain.
Harris recently missed time with a right ankle injury, but now he's dealing with an issue on the left ankle. He may skip the second leg of this back-to-back set, which would open up minutes for Caris LeVert, Ronald Holland and Isaiah Stewart.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Team-high 20 points in loss
Rotowire
Harris logged 20 points (7-14 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and five rebounds in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 113-109 loss to the Bucks.
The Pistons' offense mostly struggled Wednesday, shooting just 40.0 percent as a team, but Harris was able to get his shot off and led the team in scoring and three-pointers. The veteran forward has hit for at least 20 points in two of the last three games, and in seven contests since returning from an ankle injury, he's averaging 16.4 points, 4.4 boards, 2.3 threes and 1.9 assists while shooting 52.5 percent from the floor and 45.7 percent (16-for-35).

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Catches fire Saturday
Rotowire
Harris logged 26 points (10-12 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 31 minutes during Saturday's 138-135 victory over the Heat.
The 26-point output was a season-high mark for Harris, who hadn't scored more than 20 points in a game since Oct. 29, when he had 23 points in a win over the Magic. Harris has been forced to settle into a secondary role in this Pistons team, but he certainly took advantage of the absence of Jalen Duren (lower leg) to post his best scoring mark of the campaign. Even if Duren returns for the game against the Hawks on Monday, Harris should find a way to get his points. He's scored at least 18 points in three of his five outings since returning from a nine-game absence due to an ankle injury.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Puts up 18 points Friday
Rotowire
Harris closed Friday's 112-109 loss to Orlando with 18 points (8-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 30 minutes.
Harris has scored at least 12 points in his four games since returning from injury, and the veteran forward is entrenched as a starter for a Pistons team that remains one of the best in the Eastern Conference. Harris has a secondary role on offense behind established stars like Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren, but he'll remain valuable in fantasy as long as he continues to find ways to produce offensively.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Scores 18 points in return
Rotowire
Harris (ankle) registered 18 points (7-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block across 23 minutes during Saturday's 129-116 victory over the Bucks.
Harris returned from a nine-game absence Saturday due to a sprained right ankle, but the veteran forward didn't show any rust in his return to the hardwood. He missed only two of his nine shots -- both from beyond the arc -- and also posted decent numbers in other categories. The Pistons might choose to be careful with Harris' workload in the upcoming games, but as long as he's available, he should start and be a reliable scoring weapon for Detroit.

Rotowire
Harris (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
Harris participated in Saturday's shootaround and will suit up for this contest after previously being labeled as questionable. This will be the veteran forward's first game since Nov. 1, so it wouldn't be surprising if he has some kind of limitations given his lengthy absence.

Pistons' Tobias Harris: Participates in shootaround
Rotowire
Harris (ankle) participated in Saturday morning's shootaround, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.
Harris has missed the Pistons' last nine games due to a sprained right ankle. He has been listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks, and how his ankle feels during pregame warmups will dictate whether the veteran forward is cleared to return. If Harris is cleared to play, then fewer minutes would be available for the likes of Ronald Holland and Isaiah Stewart.
