Pistons Injury Report: Six Players Ruled Out Thursday vs Spurs

The Detroit Pistons are playing on the second leg of a back-to-back, and they have unsurprisingly ruled out a host of players for Thursday’s matchup against the San Antonio Spurs.

Hamidou Diallo is questionable. #DFS
Hamidou Diallo is also questionable, so there should be plenty of minutes available for the Pistons’ younger players on Thursday.
Isaiah Stewart Fantasy
Isaiah Stewart stands out as their top option. He’s been absolutely dominant in games without Plumlee and Grant recently, averaging a stout 1.39 FanDuel points per minute. Overall, he’s averaged 44.5 FanDuel points in three games without both players.
Killian Hayes Fantasy
Killian Hayes is another strong option. He should handle most of the point guard minutes, and he’s coming off 27.1 FanDuel points over 33.4 minutes in his last outing. Josh Jackson, Saddiq Bey, and Frank Jackson are also definitely worthy of some consideration.
The Pistons are currently listed as 10-point underdogs vs. the Spurs on FanDuel Sportsbook.
