Warriors' Seth Curry: To miss at least a week
Curry will be re-evaluated in a week due to a mild left adductor strain, Danny Emerman of SFStandard.com reports.
Curry exited Friday's game against the Timberwolves early and will face a prolonged absence due to a left adductor strain. He will miss at least four games before getting re-evaluated. His absence doesn't figure to impact the rotation significantly.

Warriors' Al Horford: Will be re-evaluated in one week
An MRI confirmed a minor right calf strain for Horford and he will be re-evaluated in one week, Danny Emerman of SFStandard.com reports.
Horford is set to miss at least the next five games, and it's important to note that while he'll be re-evaluated in one week, that doesn't mean he will return at that point. Quinten Post figures to be more involved in the rotation while Horford is sidelined.

Scottie Barnes PF | TOR
Raptors' Scottie Barnes: Continues to produce across board
Barnes accumulated 14 points (5-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 10 rebounds, eight assists, three blocks and one steal over 38 minutes during Sunday's 119-108 victory over the Pistons.
Barnes came only two assists short of what would have been his third triple-double of the year. The All-Star forward has been a reliable nine-category fantasy producer all season long, and he's posted at least one steal or block in 13 straight games. Over his last 10 contests, Barnes has averaged 15.6 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.5 blocks in 34.0 minutes per game.

Ingram ended Sunday's 119-108 win over the Pistons with 34 points (12-25 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 6-8 FT) and one rebound across 39 minutes.
Ingram is getting on a heater for the Raptors, dropping at least 30 points in back-to-back contests and 22 points in three consecutive games. Sunday also marked the star forward's 11th performance with at least 30 points in 2025-26. Over his last six outings, Ingram has averaged 21.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 35.4 minutes per game while shooting 40.0 percent from deep.

Raptors' Jakob Poeltl: Season-best effort in win
Poeltl produced 21 points (9-12 FG, 3-5 FT), 18 rebounds, five assists and one block over 36 minutes during Sunday's 119-108 win over the Pistons.
Poeltl established a season high in boards Sunday, also turning in his first 20-point, 10-rebound double-double of the year. After missing a big chunk of the season while sorting through a lingering back injury, Poeltl is rounding into form for the Raptors. Poetl has averaged 12.8 points, 8.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.5 blocks in 28.8 minutes per tilt in his last eight games, shooting a robust 71.0 percent from the field.

Pistons' Jalen Duren: Collects another double-double
Duren produced 20 points (8-11 FG, 4-7 FT) and 11 rebounds in 37 minutes during Sunday's 119-108 loss to the Raptors.
Duran is now up to 34 double-doubles on the campaign, which makes him 11 shy of setting a new career-high mark in his category with 15 games left to go in 2025-26. The All-Star big man has averaged 21.8 points, 9.5 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 26.6 minutes per game in his last six contests, shooting a potent 70.3 percent from the field during this span.

Isaiah Stewart PF | DET
Pistons' Isaiah Stewart: Lacks clear timeline for return
Pistons head coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Sunday that Stewart (calf) is without a definitive timetable to return, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports. "[The left calf strain is] something he's been dealing with. It just had been getting worse. He gutted it out [Friday versus Memphis] and I think you could see he was favoring it late," Bickerstaff said of Stewart's injury.
Stewart was sidelined for Sunday's loss to the Raptors due to the injury, and based on Bickerstaff's comments, the reserve big man looks like he could be at risk of missing the Pistons' entire three-game week. Paul Reed should remain a regular part of the rotation as Jalen Duren's primary backup until Stewart is cleared to play.

Cade Cunningham SG | DET
Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Continues rolling Sunday
Cunningham provided 33 points (12-24 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 7-8 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Sunday's 119-108 loss to the Raptors.
The All-Star floor general reached the 30-point threshold for the first time since the Feb. 19 win over the Knicks. Cunnigham is on a remarkable stretch as a passer, dishing out at least eight dimes in eight consecutive games. During this period, Cunningham has averaged 21.3 points, 11.9 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 34.0 minutes per game.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Provides full stat line in return
Thompson totaled four points (2-8 FG, 0-2 FT), one rebound, three assists, one block and one steal over 24 minutes during Sunday's 119-108 loss to the Raptors.
Following a four-game absence with an ankle sprain, Thompson chipped in across the board for the Pistons on Sunday. The third-year forward didn't appear to face a minutes restriction in his return. Since the All-Star break, Thompson has averaged 9.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.0 blocks in 24.8 minutes per game over nine contests.
