Brunson ended with 31 points (12-21 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight assists and three rebounds in 33 minutes during Sunday's 111-89 win over the Celtics.

Brunson enjoyed a scoring resurgence Sunday, leading all players with an efficient 31 points after managing just 12 points (4-20 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT) in Friday's loss to the Pistons. Prolific scoring has been a constant for the 29-year-old, as he's reached the 30-point mark 20 times this season. The star guard also led the game in assists, marking the 15th time this campaign he's dished out eight-plus dimes.

Jenkins signed a two-year contract with the Pistons on Sunday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Jenkins has been on a two-way contract with the Pistons, but he has now been signed to a standard contract with a team option for the 2026-27 season. Jenkins, who has averaged 8.2 points, 3.3 assists and 1.8 rebounds in 16.8 minutes per game across 42 contests this season, has seen an increased role of late, scoring in double figures in three of his last four appearances. Over that stretch, he has averaged 13.5 points in just 17.8 minutes per game.

Barnes finished Sunday's 122-104 win over the Pacers with 25 points (12-20 FG, 1-1 FT), 14 rebounds, six assists, four blocks and two steals over 33 minutes.

Barnes led the Raptors in scoring Sunday despite not attempting a three-pointer and showed off his elite defensive chops by finishing with at least six stocks for the sixth time this season. Barnes has logged a double-double in four of his last seven outings, and over that span he has averaged 17.1 points, 9.7 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 2.4 blocks and 0.9 steals over 33.6 minutes per contest.

Holland is out for Monday's game due to personal reasons.

Holland has seen an increased role over the past two games due to the injury to Jalen Duren (knee), but he will be unavailable for Monday's contest due to personal reasons. With Duren expected to return to action Monday, Isaiah Stewart figures to be the main beneficiary of Holland's absence.

Saric (not with team) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hornets.

Saric has yet to make his debut with the Pistons since being sent from Chicago to Sacramento on Jan. 31 before being rerouted to Detroit on Tuesday. His next chance to play for the Pistons is Wednesday against the Raptors, though he doesn't appear to be a part of Detroit's plans for now.

George (ankle) won't play Monday versus Miami.

George sprained his right ankle during Saturday's loss to Orlando and will now miss Monday's game in Miami, which will open up more minutes for Isaiah Collier and Vince Williams. For now, George should be considered highly questionable for Wednesday's game versus Sacramento, the front end of a back-to-back set.

Dunn was ejected from Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Dunn has been ejected from Sunday's game after getting into a scuffle with Julius Randle. He concludes the contest with nine points (3-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists, five rebounds and a steal in 28 minutes.

Jones (concussion) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

Jones will need to clear concussion protocol before he's allowed to return, and he's not there yet. Monday will mark his second straight game on the sidelines, and for now, he should be considered questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Grizzlies.

Duren (knee) is probable for Monday's game against the Hornets.

Duren missed Friday's game against the Knicks due to right knee soreness, but he will likely return to action Monday. Over his last five non-injury-shortened games, Duren is averaging 19.6 points, 11.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 steals in 28.6 minutes per contest.
