Sasser recorded eight points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists and one rebound across 10 minutes during Monday's 127-117 loss to the Kings. Sasser made three shots for the third consecutive game Monday. The 24-year-old has primarily been a secondary, end-of-the-bench contributor for the Pistons this season but has shown flashes of his scoring ability. Sasser posted back-to-back 20-point performances on March 23 and 25, helping him average 11.3 points on 50.0 percent shooting in 17.4 minutes over his last seven outings.

Pistons Injury Report
Sasser recorded eight points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists and one rebound across 10 minutes during Monday's 127-117 loss to the Kings. Sasser made three shots for the third consecutive game Monday. The 24-year-old has primarily been a secondary, end-of-the-bench contributor for the Pistons this season but has shown flashes of his scoring ability. Sasser posted back-to-back 20-point performances on March 23 and 25, helping him average 11.3 points on 50.0 percent shooting in 17.4 minutes over his last seven outings.
Schroder totaled five points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 32 minutes during Monday's 127-117 loss to the Kings. Schroder made his eighth consecutive start Monday but wasn't much of a factor in the defeat. The 31-year-old had been starting in place of Cade Cunningham (calf) but has started alongside Cunningham the past two games with Tobias Harris (heel) out. During his eight straight starts, Schroder has averaged 12.1 points, 6.5 assists and 3.4 rebounds on 33.3 percent shooting across 33.5 minutes per game.
Cunningham totaled 35 points (13-21 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-11 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Monday's 127-117 loss to Sacramento. Cunningham filled up the stat sheet Monday, highlighted by an efficient 35 points. However, it wasn't enough to get the win over the Kings. The rising star has scored 35 or more points for Detroit 11 times this season while averaging a career-high 25.9 points per game.
Thompson closed with 15 points (7-13 FG, 1-1 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists, one block and three steals over 29 minutes during Monday's 127-117 loss to the Kings. Thompson continues to showcase his upside in nine-category formats for his ability to contribute across the stat sheet. He leads the Pistons in that regard over his last seven games, posting third-round value with 15.3 points, 7.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.6 blocks.
Hardaway closed Monday's 127-117 loss to Sacramento with 19 points (6-15 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and two assists in 35 minutes. Hardaway's fantasy lines usually rely on his ability to score and knock down three-pointers. Over his last seven appearances, Hardaway has been a fifth-round value in nine-category formats with averages of 19.7 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 3.7 three-pointers in 33.1 minutes per contest.
Holland registered five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 15 minutes during Monday's 127-117 loss to the Kings. Holland continues to play as a depth piece for the Pistons, struggling to carve out a sizeable role during what has been an underwhelming rookie campaign. He has scored single digits in five of the past six games, basically replicating what he has done all season. Through 78 games, he has averaged 6.5 points and 2.7 rebounds in 15.5 minutes per game.
Beasley finished Monday's 127-117 loss to Sacramento with 14 points (5-15 FG, 4-14 3Pt, 0-2 FT), one rebound and two assists across 30 minutes. Beasley continues to serve up modest production, having scored fewer than 15 points in three of the past four games. While his three-point production has remained relatively consistent, a lack of supporting numbers continues to be an issue. Over his past 16 games, Beasley is averaging 14.8 points and 3.4 three-pointers, adding just 2.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 0.8 steals in 28.4 minutes per game.
Duren registered six points (2-4 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal across 20 minutes during Monday's 127-117 loss to the Kings. Duren battled foul trouble in his return from a leg injury, limiting him to just 20 minutes. Initially ruled out for the game, Duren was able to get back on the court ahead of schedule, a good sign despite the loss. The Pistons will enter the playoffs full of hope but will need Duren to be at his best should they hope to emerge victorious.
