Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Dealing with minor ankle injury
Rotowire
Ivey is probable for Monday's game against the Bulls due to a right ankle sprain.
Ivey was previously dealing with a toe injury, which caused him to miss a game last week, but is now listed with an ankle sprain, though it appears minor. Ivey posted season-high marks in points (28) and assists (eight) during Sunday's win over Washington and shouldn't have any limitations during the second half of Detroit's back-to-back set.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Game-high 28 points vs. Washington
Rotowire
Ivey tallied 28 points (10-19 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight assists, four rebounds and one steal over 30 minutes during Sunday's 124-104 win over the Wizards.
Ivey's 28 points Sunday was his highest scoring output of the regular season and he was one of three Pistons starters to score at least 20 points. It was a timely performance for the third-year guard, who had struggled over his last few games after a strong start to the 2024-25 regular season. Ivey will look to carry his momentum into Monday's game against the Bulls.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Scores 14 points in return
Rotowire
Ivey accumulated 14 points (4-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-8 FT), two rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 99-95 win over the Raptors.
Ivey returned from a one-game absence but didn't have his best performance, although the entire Pistons offense struggled in terms of their efficiency in this low-scoring matchup. Ivey enjoyed a solid start to the season but has been struggling of late, failing to reach the 20-point mark in four games in a row while shooting just 39 percent from the field, as well as 16.7 percent from deep, in that span.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Available to play Friday
Rotowire
Ivey (toe) is available for Friday's game against the Raptors.
Ivey was deemed a game-time call, but in the end, he'll suit up and should return to the starting unit right away, although it wouldn't be shocking if he has a minutes restriction. Ivey is averaging 18.6 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game this season.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Game-time call Friday
Rotowire
Ivey (toe), who is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Raptors, will be a game-time decision, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.
The club will monitor Ivey during warmups and decide whether he is good to go after missing Wednesday's loss to the Bucks. The 22-year-old was present at shootaround this morning, which bodes well for his chance to play, though it wouldn't come as a shock if he remains under a minutes restriction if he's cleared. If Ivey is unable to suit up, Marcus Sasser and Malik Beasley are candidates for an uptick in playing time, especially if Tim Hardaway (head) or Simone Fontecchio (toe) are ruled out.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Present at shootaround Friday
Rotowire
Ivey (toe), who is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors, was a full participant during Friday's morning shootaround, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.
While Ivey is still in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive matchup due to a right big toe sprain, his presence at shootaround bodes well for the possibility he suits up. The 22-year-old guard's absence could result in a lift in production from Marcus Sasser and Malik Beasley, especially if Tim Hardaway (head) or Simone Fontecchio (toe) are ruled out as well.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Iffy for Friday
Rotowire
Ivey (toe) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Raptors.
Ivey is in danger of missing his second straight tilt Wednesday due to a right big toe sprain. With Tim Hardaway (head) and Simone Fontecchio (toe) doubtful, Ron Holland, Malik Beasley and Marcus Sasser could all be in store for increased playing time yet again.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Ruled out for Wednesday
Rotowire
Ivey will not play Wednesday against the Bucks due to a right big toe sprain.
Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so the Pistons could be exercising caution with Ivey since he hadn't appeared on the injury report at any other point this season. The Pistons will be short on bodies Wednesday, as Tim Hardaway (head), Simone Fontecchio (toe) and Ausar Thompson (conditioning) are also sidelined.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Stuffs stat sheet in win Tuesday
Rotowire
Ivey ended with 19 points (8-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 41 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 123-121 overtime victory over Miami.
Ivey produced a bounce-back game after posting eight points and shooting 4-for-15 from the field in Sunday's loss to the Rockets. The 22-year-old set season highs in both rebounds and assists, though his struggles from downtown continued. Across his last three games, Ivey has shot only 2-for-13 from beyond the arc, though he is still shooting a fairly decent 35.6 percent from three on the season. Through 12 regular-season outings, the young guard is averaging 18.8 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists across 32.9 minutes per game.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Held to eight points
Rotowire
Ivey recorded eight points (4-15 FG, 0-4 3Pt), seven rebounds and two assists across 34 minutes during Sunday's 101-99 loss to the Rockets.
This was a rare dud for Ivey this season, so it can be chalked up as an off night. Through 11 games, Ivey has produced averages of 18.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.8 three-pointers on 45.7 percent from the field and 37.0 percent from beyond the arc.

Rotowire
Ivey totaled 26 points (10-16 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-7 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 35 minutes during Monday's 115-103 victory over the Lakers.
Ivey led the Pistons in scoring and continues to break out in his third NBA campaign. Through the opening eight games, Ivey has produced averages of 19.6 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.0 three-pointers while hitting 46.7 percent from the field and 39.0 percent from beyond the arc, both of which put him on pace for career-high shooting marks.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Struggles with shot
Rotowire
Ivey supplied 15 points (4-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Sunday's 106-92 win over the Nets.
This wasn't Ivey's best shooting night, obviously, but he continues to do a good job of stuffing the stat sheet thus far. Through seven games, Ivey is posting averages of 18.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.1 three-pointers on 44.2 percent shooting from the field.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Leads Detroit in scoring
Rotowire
Ivey finished with 26 points (10-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, six assists and a steal across 39 minutes in Saturday's 124-118 loss to the Celtics.
Ivey led the Pistons in scoring, and even though Cade Cunningham is the team's go-to player on offense, there's no question Ivey is enjoying an excellent start to the 2024-25 campaign. The third-year guard has scored at least 17 points in every game thus far while surpassing the 20-point mark in his last two appearances. Furthermore, he has increased his scoring totals with each passing game. A regression is likely to happen, particularly in his shooting percentages, but Ivey is clearly outperforming expectations early in the season.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Drops 16 points in preseason loss
Rotowire
Ivey scored 16 points (6-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT) while adding five assists, four rebounds and a steal in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 105-97 preseason loss to the Suns
The fifth overall pick in the 2022 Draft has had a strong start to the exhibition schedule, as he looks to prove he has a place in Detroit's future plans. Ivey should be set as the team's starting two-guard alongside Cade Cunningham to begin the season, but the former will either need to improve his scoring efficiency significantly or become an asset on the defensive end of the court, or both. If he doesn't, Ivey may lose minutes to the likes of Tim Hardaway, Malik Beasley and Simone Fontecchio.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Leads Pistons in preseason win
Rotowire
Ivey notched 22 points (6-8 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 7-9 FT), two rebounds, an assist and a block across 23 minutes in Sunday's 120-87 preseason win over the Bucks.
Ivey is competing for a starting role in the backcourt alongside Cade Cunningham, and there's no question he made a strong case for himself with a solid showing Sunday, leading the team in scoring and looking extremely efficient with his shot, particularly from three-point range. Ivey is competing with Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway for that starting gig, and he outplayed both of them, so things might be trending in the right direction for him with the regular season approaching quickly.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Struggles in win
Rotowire
Ivey accumulated seven points (3-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), one rebound, five assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Friday's 107-89 victory over the Mavericks.
Ivey's single-digit point total was just his third such performance since Feb. 26. The second-year guard has averaged 16.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.5 triples across 30.5 minutes in his previous 10 games. He will look to end the season strongly when Detroit travels to San Antonio on Sunday.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Finishes as leading scorer Tuesday
Rotowire
Ivey contributed 25 points (8-17 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 3-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 120-102 loss to Philadelphia.
With Cade Cunningham missing his fourth straight game due to left knee injury management, Ivey continues to see an uptick in shot attempts. Ivey is averaging 12.7 shot attempts per game this season, but he has attempted 15-plus shots in each of his last six games. With the regular season winding down, the Pistons could opt to sit Cunningham down the stretch, which would mean more opportunities for Ivey. Ivey has averaged 20.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 5.3 assists over 30.4 minutes per game over the last four contests while shooting 55.6 percent from three on 6.8 attempts.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Records double-double
Rotowire
Ivey registered 16 points (7-21 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, 10 assists and two steals over 31 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 loss to the Nets.
Ivey didn't have his best shooting performance and ended up needing 21 shots to score 16 points, but he salvaged his fantasy stat line with his contributions in other categories -- mainly as a passer with a season-high 10 assists. Ivey should experience an uptick in his usage rate as long as Cade Cunningham (knee) remains sidelined.

Pistons' Jaden Ivey: Scores 31 points against Memphis
Rotowire
Ivey logged 31 points (10-15 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 32 minutes during Friday's 108-90 loss to Memphis.
Ivey delivered one of his best scoring performances of the season Friday, and even though he reached the 30-point mark just for the fourth time in the current campaign, his efforts were not enough to lift the Pistons to victory. Ivey has scored 15 or more points in six of his last nine outings, and he could be in line to handle a bigger role on offense in the final week of the regular season if Cade Cunningham (knee) doesn't return for the final games on the schedule.
