Injury report

Detroit Pistons

  • Jalen DurenOut· back Nov 24Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Right Hamstring Strain (2026-11-14, DET@MIA). Prior reporting (2026-11-08): Duren (hamstring) has begun on-court activity and will be re-evaluated in two weeks, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports. Duren is progressing in his rehab after suffering a right hamstring strain Oct. 23, though he'll remain on the inactive list for at least the next two weeks while ramping up toward a return to game action. Paul Reed should continue to play a sizable role in Duren's stead.

    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Right Hip Contusion (2026-11-14, DET@MIA). Prior reporting (2026-11-09): Joe (hip) is out for Monday against the Wizards. Joe is missing a seventh consecutive contest with a bruised hip. His next chance to play comes Thursday in a road rematch with Washington.

  • Ugonna OnyensoOut· back Nov 14Report updated ·
    Report note

    G League - Two-Way (2026-11-14, DET@MIA). Prior reporting (2026-11-11): Onyenso agreed to a two-way contract with the Pistons on Thursday. The No. 53 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, Onyenso appears poised to see run in the G League after putting pen to paper on a two-way deal. He'll likely face an uphill battle to carve out a role in the rotation, so Detroit will presumably allow him to continue his development with Motor City.
