Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Contributes across the board
Thompson closed with four points (2-3 FG), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 113-95 victory over the Raptors.
While Wednesday's effort was relatively muted, Thompson has bounced back nicely overall from a shaky start to the season. The versatile forward has averaged 8.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.7 steals in 25.1 minutes per contest in his last 12 games, shooting 52.4 percent from the floor. That said, Thompson's subpar foul shooting and lack of outside scoring could continue to limit his minutes to the 20s.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Monster line in loss
Thompson chipped in 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, two blocks and four steals in 33 minutes during Thursday's 126-117 loss to the Wizards.
For the sixth time this season, Thompson recorded at least four steals -- his season-high mark remains six steals, which he accomplished against Golden State on Jan. 30. Thompson has been a fourth-round value in nine-category formats over his last eight games with 9.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 3.0 steals and 0.8 blocks in 24.9 minutes per contest.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Strong line in win
Thompson recorded nine points (4-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals in 25 minutes during Sunday's 130-77 victory over the Nets.
The Pistons ran away with this game in a hurry, resulting in fewer minutes for their key players. Thompson was a menace defensively and made the most of his modest workload, however. The forward has provided fourth-round value in nine-category formats over his last eight games, averaging 9.0 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 3.1 steals and 0.5 blocks over that stretch.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Grabs five steals
Thompson totaled 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and five steals over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 109-107 win over the Nuggets.
Thompson saw just 20 minutes of play for the second game in a row, which is below his average of 25.8 per game this year. He was very productive, however, racking up 14 points and four rebounds on high efficiency.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Sees just 20 minutes
Thompson contributed five points (2-5 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists and two steals in 20 minutes during Sunday's 139-116 win over the Kings.
The Pistons ran away with this game early, so the team was able to take its foot off the gas early. As a result, Cade Cunningham was the only starter to eclipse 24 minutes. Thompson is still on an upward trend over his last six games with 8.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.3 steals in just 22.5 minutes per contest.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Flirts with double-double
Thompson totaled 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and three steals over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 112-104 victory over the Pelicans.
Thompson fell one rebound short of a double-double, while also adding at least three defensive stats for the fifth time in the past six games. Although his scoring continues to be an issue, Thompson has been a relatively consistent source of steals and blocks, while also providing out-of-position rebounds on a nightly basis. For those not seeking points in fantasy basketball, he certainly warrants a roster spot.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Will play Saturday
Thompson (heel) is available for Saturday's game against the Pacers.
As expected, Thompson will shed his probable tag due to a right heel contusion. Over six outings in January, the second-year forward has averaged 8.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.3 blocks in 25.7 minutes per contest.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Probable for Saturday
Thompson (heel) is probable for Saturday's game against the Pacers.
Thompson is likely to be available Saturday despite a right heel contusion. The young forward has averaged 8.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.2 blocks in 24.8 minutes per game over the Pistons' past five contests.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Plays just 19 minutes in close win
Thompson supplied five points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 19 minutes during Thursday's 108-105 win over the Suns.
Thompson's minutes continue to rise and fall, with his 19 minutes Thursday marking his lowest point since he saw 16 minutes against the Jazz on Dec. 26. Including that game, Thompson has averaged 8.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks in 24.0 minutes across his past nine appearances. It seems unlikely at this point that he'll put together the breakout season many were hoping for.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Big night on defense
Thompson chipped in 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 108-93 win over the Bulls.
The third-year forward recorded multiple steals and blocks in the same game for the first time since Dec. 20, and the fourth time this season. Thompson's production remains erratic, but over the last 10 games, he's averaging 11.3 points, 6.1 boards, 1.9 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.1 blocks.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Sees 22 minutes in win
Thompson ended with eight points (4-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 win over the Cavaliers.
Tobias Harris (hip) is going to miss a couple of weeks, while Jalen Duren (ankle) is expected to miss at least one week. Thompson should, in theory, play more minutes for Detroit as a result, but his workload Sunday was a bit disappointing from a fantasy perspective.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Non-factor in blowout win
Thompson logged seven points (3-6 FG, 1-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 128-106 victory over the Lakers.
Thompson failed to get anything going in the victory and ceded a lot of production to Marcus Sasser, whose shot was more dialed in. Although Thompson is injury-free, he's in the midst of a horrible three-game slump, producing only 21 points, 14 rebounds and four assists over the last three contests.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Logs double-double in victory
Thompson finished Monday's 110-102 victory over Portland with 18 points (8-16 FG, 2-4 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and three steals in 28 minutes.
After blowing a 21-point lead, Thompson led a late rally in the fourth quarter after Cade Cunningham fouled out. Thompson posted four key points along with two rebounds and a steal in the closing minutes during an 11-2 run that sealed the victory. The win also marked Thompson's third double-double of the season.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Elite two-way performance
Thompson finished with 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-6 FT), four rebounds, two assists, four blocks and three steals across 26 minutes during Saturday's 112-86 win over Charlotte.
Thompson has arguably his best two-way performance of the season, recording a season-high seven combined steals and blocks. Despite a consistent starting role, Thompson's playing time has been a source of frustration for fantasy managers. While this issue doesn't seem to be going away any time soon, a performance like this is at least a step in the right direction. Look for him to try to build on this effort when the Pistons face the Trail Blazers on Monday.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Ejected vs. Mavs
Thompson was ejected from Thursday's game against Dallas after being assessed two technical fouls, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports. He'll finish the night with eight points (3-6 FG, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in nine minutes.
Thompson was upset after he wasn't granted a foul call, and he was quickly ejected from the matchup upon letting the official know of his displeasure. Javonte Green and Caris LeVert will likely be asked to step up the rest of the way in Thompson's absence.

Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Woeful in victory
Thompson finished Monday's 112-105 win over Boston with seven points (3-6 FG, 1-7 FT) and six rebounds across 23 minutes.
Thompson continues to struggle, having now played fewer than 30 minutes in six straight games. Although he is locked in as a member of the starting lineup, his limited offensive skill set, particularly an inability to stretch the floor, typically results in him being subbed out of the game during crucial moments. Through 22 appearances, Thompson is averaging just 11.6 points, 6.0 rebounds and 2.2 combined steals and blocks in 27.4 minutes per game, making him barely a top-200 player.
