Pistons' Jalen Duren: Expected to play in preseason
Duren (rest) is expected to play at some point this preseason, per Hunter Patterson of The Athletic.
After Duren engaged in a long standoff regarding contract negotiations with Detroit, the Pistons are monitoring the big man's reps as he ramps up his activity at training camp. His next chance to see exhibition action comes Saturday in Washington.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Scores 10 in limited run
Cunningham finished with 10 points (3-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 16 minutes during Monday's preseason win over Phoenix.
Cunningham played exclusively in the first half as Detroit kept its franchise guard on a limited workload in the preseason opener. Despite the modest production, Cunningham remains the centerpiece of the Pistons' offense and should once again carry a substantial scoring and playmaking workload.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Sees 18 minutes in preseason
Jenkins finished with five points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four assists and two rebounds in 18 minutes during Monday's preseason win over the Suns.
Jenkins helped Detroit erase a 19-point deficit and connected on a contested three-pointer to tie the game at the end of the third quarter. After emerging as a rotation contributor last season, the 24-year-old will look to secure consistent reserve minutes in a deeper Detroit backcourt.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Perfect from deep
Robinson recorded nine points (3-4 FG, 3-3 3Pt) and one assist in 13 minutes during Monday's 109-107 preseason win over Phoenix.
Robinson started at shooting guard and knocked down all three of his attempts from beyond the arc before sitting out the second half. The veteran sharpshooter appears positioned to start and should provide valuable spacing around Cade Cunningham.

Pistons' Isaiah Joe: Drops seven points in debut
Joe finished with seven points (2-8 FG, 2-3 FT, 1-6 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 18 minutes during Monday's 109-107 preseason win over the Suns.
As expected, Joe came off the bench for his new team, allowing Duncan Robinson to remain in the starting lineup. It would appear as though Joe is pencilled in to play a similar role to the one he played during his time in Oklahoma City. However, the need for spacing in Detroit is clear for everyone to see, meaning Joe's opportunities could come a little more frequently. Should Robinson stumble along the way, it wouldn't be surprising to see Joe experimented with as a member of the starting lineup, even for just a handful of games. For now, he should only be considered a stream-level player in standard formats.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Four defensive stats in win
Thompson amassed 10 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 FT), three steals, two rebounds, two assists and one block in 18 minutes during Monday's 109-107 preseason win over Phoenix.
Thompson did what he does best, racking up four combined steals and blocks, while also ending as one of five Pistons players to record double-digit scoring. Coming off what was a solid 2025-26 season, all signs point to Thompson playing an even larger role this season. Detroit signed Thompson to a five-year, $155 million deal during the offseason, presumably positioning him to be a huge part of the team's future. Although he has some limitations on the offensive end, Thompson warrants a spot in all fantasy leagues, making for a viable target anywhere after the sixth round, depending on your team's build.

Pistons' Paul Reed: Delivers full line in start
Reed accumulated 10 points (2-6 FG, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in 21 minutes during Monday's 109-107 preseason victory over the Suns.
With Jalen Duren (rest) sitting out the preseason opener, Reed was elevated into the starting lineup. To no one's surprise, he made the most of his opportunity, contributing adequately on both ends of the floor. Although the recent re-signing of Duren does put a cap on what Reed might be able to do this season, the fact that Isaiah Stewart is no longer around can't be overlooked. Reed is slated to serve as the primary backup behind Durne, a role that Stewart filled last season. Assuming he can flirt with 20 minutes per game, Reed still makes sense as a sneaky late-round flier.

Pistons' Ronald Holland: Drops 14 points in preseason opener
Holland registered 14 points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-8 FT), four rebounds, one assist, five steals and two blocks in 24 minutes during Monday's 109-107 preseason win over the Suns.
Holland made his presence felt all over the court Monday night, leading Detroit in scoring while accounting for two of the team's seven swats and racking up a team-high five steals. This is a promising start to the preseason for the 21-year-old, who is eyeing a key role heading into the 2026-27 season following the offseason departures of Tobias Harris and Isaiah Stewart.

Pistons' Ebuka Okorie: Impressing in Detroit
Coach J.B. Bickerstaff has been impressed by Okorie so far in camp and wants the guard to continue to gain experience against NBA-caliber talent in the preseason, Coty M. Davis of The Detroit News reports.
Okorie should get his fair share of opportunities during Monday night's preseason game against the Suns as the team continues to evaluate where the young guard will fit into the rotation. Bickerstaff has been particularly impressed by Okorie's maturity and poise, and his ability to take care of the basketball. The 19-year-old was selected by the Pistons with the No. 17 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft and is in a position to earn regular minutes off the bench behind Cade Cunningham.

Pistons' Paul Reed: Starting preseason opener
Reed will start Monday's preseason game against the Suns, Eric Vincent of ClutchPoints.com reports.
With Jalen Duren (rest) out, Reed will enter the starting lineup in Detroit's preseason opener. The 27-year-old is expected to operate as the Pistons' primary backup behind Duren in 2026-27.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Won't play Monday
Duren (rest) won't play in Monday's preseason game against the Suns, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.
Duren returned to practice Monday for the first time since signing a five-year, $200 million extension. However, it's unclear when the big man will see live-game reps. Coach J.B. Bickerstaff said they have a "plan" to ramp Duren up, and the goal is to have their All-Star center available for the regular-season opener against Boston on Oct. 20.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Goes through practice Monday
Duren was spotted back at practice Monday, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.
Duren was back in the building for the first time since signing a five-year, $200 million extension. However, it remains to be seen if the Pistons will immediately give him some live game reps for Monday's exhibition against the Suns.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Not present at Saturday's practice
Duren (undisclosed) is not present for the Pistons' open practice Saturday, Eric Vincent of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Duren signed a five-year, $200 million contract with the Pistons on Thursday after an offseason of negotiating. It's unclear exactly why the big man isn't at Saturday's practice, though he can be considered questionable for Detroit's preseason opener against the Suns on Monday.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Inks five-year extension with Detroit
Duren agreed to a five-year, $200 million contract extension with the Pistons on Thursday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
The two sides had been at a standstill since it was reported Monday that Duren wasn't showing up to media day or for the start of training camp, but a fully guaranteed deal has since been reached. Now that the big man's contract has been resolved, he'll presumably have plenty of time to join the team and ramp up his basketball activities to appear in a preseason game or two before the start of the 2026-27 campaign.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Heavier workload in store
Head coach JB Bickerstaff said Thursday the plan is for Thompson to play more this season, per Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press.
Thompson already averaged a career-high 25.9 minutes per game last regular season, but it sounds like the Pistons are ready to trust him with an even larger workload. His shooting form remains a work in progress -- Thompson has never shot higher than 65 percent from the foul line or 25 percent from deep -- but the swingman has seen his assist and steal totals rise in each of his first three seasons and carries plenty of multi-category upside in the mid-to-late rounds of fantasy drafts.

Pistons' John Collins: Meshing well with Cunningham
Collins plans to use his versatility to complement Cade Cunningham after joining the Pistons during the offseason, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.
The veteran forward highlighted Cunningham's playmaking ability and said he wants to generate easy baskets by playing off the star guard. Collins shot 40.6 percent from three-point range during the 2025-26 regular season, and his combination of perimeter shooting and finishing ability should give Cunningham another versatile offensive option.

Pistons' Brice Williams: Signs Exhibit 10 pact
Williams signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Pistons on Monday, Eric Woodyard of ESPN reports.
Williams will compete for a spot on Detroit's regular-season roster, and the team also owns his G League rights. He spent the 2025-26 campaign with the Motor City Cruise and will likely return to the Cruise if he's waived by Detroit.
