Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Expected to suit up Saturday
Thompson, who missed Sunday's game against the Bucks due to left knee patellar tendinopathy, is expected to play Saturday against the Knicks.
No surprise here, as the Pistons opted to rest both Thompson and Cade Cunningham (knee) for the regular-season finale. Thompson had a terrific second season, posting averages of 10.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.7 steals and 0.7 blocks in 22.5 minutes per game.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Expected to play Game 1
Cunningham (knee) didn't play in the regular-season finale but is expected to be ready for Saturday's game against the Knicks.
Cunningham is coming off an incredible regular season with the Pistons, as he had the best campaign of his NBA career thus far. The rising star averaged career-high numbers across the board with 26.1 points, 6.1 rebounds and 9.1 assists, shooting 46.9 percent from the floor and 35.6 percent from beyond the arc.

Pistons' Lindy Waters: Drains six threes in season finale
Waters closed Sunday's 140-133 overtime loss to Milwaukee with 18 points (6-16 FG, 6-16 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 35 minutes off the bench.
There was nothing on the line for either team in the regular-season finale, so Waters saw his biggest workload yet in a Detroit jersey and had his best performance from beyond the arc since the 2022-23 campaign. The fourth-year forward had been a healthy scratch in each of the Pistons' prior four games, so he's unlikely to have a meaningful role when the team begins its playoff run Saturday against the Knicks.

Pistons' Malik Beasley: Delivers team-high 23 in OT loss
Beasley provided 23 points (8-14 FG, 7-11 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 19 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 140-133 overtime loss to the Bucks.
There was nothing on the line for either team in the regular-season finale, so the Pistons gave their second unit plenty of run. Beasley took the biggest advantage, leading the team in scoring in an efficient performance. The 28-year-old guard heads into the playoffs with some momentum, having scored in double digits in 15 straight games (four starts) while averaging 16.1 points, 3.9 threes, 2.0 boards and 1.8 assists in 29.7 minutes a contest.

Pistons' Marcus Sasser: Double-double in season finale
Sasser registered 18 points (7-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound, 10 assists and two steals in 43 minutes during Sunday's 140-133 overtime loss to the Bucks.
There was nothing on the line for either team in the regular-season finale. In his first start of 2024-25, Sasser wound up being the only member of Detroit's starting five to score in double digits -- or even play more than 23 minutes -- en route to his first double-double of the campaign. Sasser was a healthy scratch for the two games prior, which may not bode well for his role when the Pistons begin their playoff run Saturday against the Knicks.

Pistons' Ronald Holland: Starting Sunday
Holland is in Detroit's starting lineup against Milwaukee on Sunday.
Holland will make his first start since Nov. 13 and should see extended action in Sunday's regular-season finale. He has averaged 4.8 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists over 14.6 minutes per game over his last five outings.

Pistons' Marcus Sasser: Starting against Milwaukee
Sasser is in the Pistons' starting lineup against the Bucks on Sunday.
With Cade Cunningham (knee) sidelined, Sasser will make his first start of the season. He was a healthy scratch in the Pistons' last two games but should get an extended run in Sunday's regular-season finale.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Downgraded to out Sunday
Cunningham (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Cunningham was initially listed as probable for the regular-season finale, but he's been downgraded to out right before tipoff. His status for the first-round matchup against the Knicks remains to be seen, but his absence is a bit concerning since he recently missed a six-game stretch due to a calf issue. Marcus Sasser will start at point guard Sunday.

Pistons' Isaiah Stewart: Out for season finale
Stewart (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Stewart will miss a second consecutive game, and considering that the Pistons don't have anything to play for in this game, he will rest and aim to get ready for the start of the playoffs April 19. Stewart's absence should open up minutes for Paul Reed as the backup center to Jalen Duren.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Won't play Sunday
Thompson is out for Sunday's game against the Bucks due to left knee patellar tendinopathy.
Thompson is dealing with the same injury as Cade Cunningham (knee), but while the star floor general has been listed as probable for this matchup, Thompson won't suit up and will rest ahead of the start of the playoffs on Saturday, April 19. Thompson ends the season with averages of 10.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.7 steals and 0.7 blocks per game across 59 appearances (48 starts).

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Probable for Sunday
Cunningham is probable for Sunday's game against the Bucks due to left knee patellar tendinopathy.
Cunningham has been working through a left knee injury in recent days, but the probable tag suggests the star floor general should play in the season finale. The Pistons have already locked up a spot in the playoffs, but Cunningham is likely to suit up anyway. He enters the final game of the regular season with averages of 33.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game in four April appearances.

Pistons' Dennis Schroder: Hands out eight dimes off bench
Schroder ended Friday's 125-119 loss to the Bucks with 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds and eight assists in 28 minutes.
Schroder has played off the bench in his last two outings, and the veteran guard will remain in that role if Cade Cunningham remains healthy in the postseason. Schroder can put up solid numbers if given enough minutes, but his fantasy upside will be limited in that bench role, particularly if Cunningham's minutes hover around the 38-to-40 range. Schroder is averaging 11.7 points, 5.5 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game in 21 appearances since the beginning of March (eight starts).

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Pulls down 16 rebounds Friday
Duren accumulated 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-6 FT), 16 rebounds, five assists and one block across 39 minutes during Friday's 125-119 loss to Milwaukee.
Duren had to deal with Brook Lopez throughout the game, but the young big man still posted a decent stat line en route to recording a double-double for the sixth time across his last seven appearances. Duren is averaging 13.8 points, 13.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.8 blocks per game in five outings since the beginning of April and is ending the regular season on a strong note with the playoffs right around the corner.

Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Impressive double-double
Cunningham notched 36 points (15-21 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, 12 assists and two blocks over 36 minutes during Friday's 125-119 loss to the Bucks.
Cunningham looked dominant throughout the entire game and was particularly efficient with his shot, as the Bucks' defense didn't have answers to slow him down all game long. Cunningham missed only six of his 21 shots from the field, and he's ending the regular season on an absolute heater. He's scored at least 35 points in his last three outings while shooting an impressive -- and unsustainable -- 66.7 percent from the floor in that stretch.
