    Pistons' Paul Reed: Underwhelming in win

    Reed produced 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-4 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 13 minutes during Tuesday's 130-117 victory over the Wizards.

    Despite Isaiah Stewart's continued absence due to a calf injury, Reed failed to make a significant impact. In two games without Stewart, Reed has logged 11 and 13 minutes, averaging 7.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks. At this point, there are likely better streaming options available in most leagues.

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Powers Detroit to victory

    Duren tallied 36 points (13-17 FG, 10-11 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one block in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 130-117 win over Washington.

    Cade Cunningham (back) exited to the locker room in the first quarter and was quickly ruled out for the remainder of the night, and it was Duren who stepped up in a big way. He secured his fourth straight double-double and focused on getting to the charity stripe, attempting double-digit free throws for the third time in nine March outings. It doesn't look as though Cunningham will miss much time if any, but it was promising to see Duren take command on a night when Detroit was forced to play without its star point guard.

    Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Considered questionable to return

    Reid is questionable to return to Tuesday's game against Phoenix due to a right ankle sprain.

    It's a promising sign that Reid hasn't been ruled out for the rest of the night after suffering an ankle sprain during the second quarter. He should have a chance to test out the injured ankle when the team warms up for the second half.

  • Luke Kornet C | SA

    Spurs' Luke Kornet: Good to go Tuesday

    Kornet (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against Sacramento.

    Kornet was able to test out his knee during warmups and evidently felt strong enough to give it a go Tuesday evening after missing Monday's matchup against the Clippers. He's averaging 4.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.4 assists through eight March outings.

    Bucks' Jericho Sims: Should return vs. Cavs

    Sims (lips) is expected to return to Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

    Sims was spotted walking to the locker room during the first quarter due to a facial injury, and he was later diagnosed with a lip laceration that required a few stitches. The team has since stated that he should be able to check back in, which is a great sign considering both Myles Turner (calf) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) are sidelined.

    Reid appeared to roll his ankle on an opposing player and was down on the court in pain after the play. He was eventually able to get up and walk off under his own power. Reid can be considered questionable to return until the team has an update to provide.
