Pistons' Caris LeVert: Nets 19 points in win
Rotowire
LeVert provided 19 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 6-9 FT), one rebound, three assists, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Monday's 122-117 win over Indiana.
LeVert had been quiet in his previous two outings, combining for a total of 13 points, but he was able to get things back on track Monday evening against a lackluster Pacers defense. LeVert is a capable scorer and playmaker, but his minutes have been too inconsistent this season for him to make a meaningful impact in fantasy leagues.

Pistons' Caris LeVert: Removed from injury report
Rotowire
LeVert (ankle) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
The veteran swingman missed Tuesday's game against the Hawks due to a left ankle sprain, with the contest being the second part of a back-to-back for the Pistons. Jaden Ivey (knee) is nearing his season debut, meaning LeVert should soon have more competition for minutes in the backcourt. LeVert has averaged 9.4 points, 3.5 assists, 1.7 rebounds and 1.2 three-pointers in 19.8 minutes per tilt across 10 games this season.

Pistons' Caris LeVert: Sitting out with ankle sprain
Rotowire
LeVert has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Hawks due to a left ankle sprain.
LeVert wasn't known to be nursing an injury, but he may have tweaked his ankle in Monday's 127-112 win over the Pacers, when he was limited to just 17 minutes despite Detroit being without several key contributors. He'll be held out of the second leg of a back-to-back set, but LeVert could be ready to go for Saturday's tilt against the Bucks. LeVert's absence for at least one more game would give the red-hot Daniss Jenkins a clearer pathway to minutes Tuesday, even if all of Tobias Harris (ankle), Ausar Thompson (ankle) and Cade Cunningham (hip) return to action following multi-game absences.

Pistons' Caris LeVert: Underwhelming output in return
Rotowire
LeVert (hamstring) finished with four points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two assists and one rebound across 16 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 135-116 win over the Magic.
In his return from a three-game absence due to a left hamstring injury, LeVert was the first player off the Detroit bench. Though LeVert finished fifth in the Pistons in usage rate (18.6 percent) and was a plus-six during his time on the court, it didn't translate in his box-score line. Expect LeVert to continue to maintain a regular role on the second unit as a scorer and secondary creator, but his playing time could fluctuate based on how hot or cold his shooting is in a given game.
