• Evan Fournier: Scores 10 points in loss to Germany

  08/02/2024 • By RotoWire

  Fournier had 10 points (2-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and one assist for France in Friday's 85-71 loss to Germany. Fournier was one of three France players who scored in double digits in the loss, joining Victor Wembanyama and Isaia Cordinier. Even though his final stat line wasn't exactly eye-popping, Fournier should remain one of France's most reliable offensive weapons in the knockout stage. A strong showing in the Olympics could entice an NBA team to take a gamble on Fournier before the start of training camp.

• Evan Fournier: Team declines option

  06/28/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Pistons declined Fournier's $19 million team option Friday, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports. The move was fully anticipated, as Fournier had fallen well short of expectations since joining the Knicks on a three-year, $54 million deal in August 2021 as part of a sign-and-trade deal with the Celtics. The veteran wing was outside of the New York rotation before being dealt to Detroit prior to the deadline. He then averaged 7.2 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 triples across 18.7 minutes in 29 games with the team. He'll likely have to settle for a one-year deal -- perhaps at the veteran's minimum -- if he's to keep his NBA career going.

• Pistons' Evan Fournier: Season-high 21 points vs. Philly

  04/10/2024 • By RotoWire

  Fournier finished with 21 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 120-102 loss to the 76ers. Fournier returned from a one-game absence due to a sore right knee. He led the bench in scoring Tuesday, and he finished behind only Jaden Ivey in that category. Fournier's 21 points marked a season high for the 12-year veteran, and his playing time has waxed and waned since joining the Pistons at the trade deadline. He could see more action for Thursday's game against the Bulls if Cade Cunningham (knee) continues to miss time.
