Robinson missed a game for the first time this season on Monday, which opened the door for Daniss Jenkins to start in his place. Jenkins had a rough shooting night, but he was able to supply eight rebounds and six assists and has generally been a reliable streamer when he starts this year. If Robinson remains out, Jenkins will be worth streaming.

After a one-game absence due to a left leg contusion, Duren was back in the lineup and made his presence felt immediately. He was Detroit’s leading rebounder and helped the Pistons dominate the glass; they won the rebounding matchup 60-34. Duren has a double-double in four straight games and will look to keep that going against the Bucks on Wednesday.

With Duncan Robinson (ankle) sidelined for the first time this season, Jenkins was able to get the starting nod. He was able to provide rebounds and assists, but it was a rough shooting night for him. He missed all eight of his shots from deep and both of his free throws. Jenkins has typically been productive as a starter, so this performance shouldn’t make anyone shy away from him as a streamer next time he gets to start.

Cunningham wasn’t able to have his typical dominant scoring night, but he got the job done late with a pair of clutch buckets with less than a minute left to turn a tied game in to a four-point lead for Detroit. His scoring output was underwhelming for fantasy managers, but the rest of his night wasn’t. He set a new career high for steals and had more “stocks” than he’s ever had in a single game. It was an impressive performance for him, and he’ll look to stay hot in Milwaukee on Wednesday.

Huff has reached double figures in five straight, with Monday’s point total being his highest since November 19 (season-high 20 vs. Charlotte). He’s been the starting center the last three games, with Isaiah Jackson (6/3/0/1/2 in 16 minutes) being pushed to the bench. While iJax is the Pacers’ former first-round pick, Huff has been more consistently productive, and he’s received more opportunities as a result.

Nembhard surpassed the 20-point mark for the first time in five games on Monday. In fact, after scoring 32 points in the Pacers’ November 21 loss to Cleveland, he shot 11-of-34 from the field in the following three games. Before the season, Nembhard was a player whom many fantasy managers believed could safely provide top-100 value. Unfortunately, an early-season injury put him on the shelf for a few weeks, stunting his progress.

With the Cavaliers regaining control of Monday’s game early in the fourth quarter, Siakam lost out on a few minutes due to Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle pulling the plug. Given how many games the Pacers have lost, this has to be a frustrating season for Siakam and, by extension, those who have him on their fantasy rosters. Having entered the season with a third-round Yahoo! ADP, he’s ranked outside the top-75 in eight- and nine-cat formats. And with Indiana being 4-17, buying low comes with the risk of “Spicy P” being shut down later in the season, as the Pacers regained control of their 2026 first-round pick via a June trade with the Pelicans.

With Jalen Duren (leg) unavailable, Isaiah Stewart served as the starting center in Miami. However, while Beef Stew (9/8/1/0/1 in 29 minutes) was solid in his time on the floor, Duren’s absence opened things up for Reed as well. “BBall Paul” recorded his second double-double of the season, with the first occurring in a November 12 win over the Bulls. Unlike Stewart, who can provide tangible fantasy value when Duren is playing, Reed needs an absence to become viable. He should only be added if Duren misses more time. Detroit opens a four-game Week 7 on Monday against the Hawks.

A double-digit scorer in all five games he’s played since returning from a sprained ankle, Harris had his best night of the season in Miami. He recorded his second 20-point game, exceeding his previous high of 23 (October 29 vs. Orlando). Harris remains outside the top-100 in nine-cat formats, but that’s due mainly to the sprained ankle and time that he missed. He isn’t a prolific fantasy option, but Tobias will provide reliable value when available. The Pistons play four games during Week 7.

For the first time since being traded to Detroit during the offseason, Robinson played against the Heat in Miami on Saturday. And he played well, scoring 18 points, the most he’s had in a game in over two weeks. Robinson has been close to a top-100 player in nine-cat formats this season, exceeding his Yahoo! ADP (141). With Jaden Ivey (9/2/1 with one three-pointer) still under a minutes restriction, playing time won’t be an issue for Robinson for the time being, preserving his fantasy value.

While Cunningham had another high-turnover night, committing eight, he continued to make big plays down the stretch. The Pistons’ point guard leads the NBA in fourth-quarter points, and while he only made two shots in the fourth on Saturday, Cade’s jumper with 20.2 seconds remaining gave Detroit a four-point lead. Over the past two weeks, Cunningham has provided top-10 per-game value in eight-cat formats, slightly better than his season-long value. The Pistons play four games in Week 7, starting with the Hawks on Monday.

Jackson was bumped to the bench for Friday’s game, and he wasn’t effective in that role. However, he was able to make a large impact in this one. Both Pacers bigs had success, as Jay Huff, who started at center, contributed 14 points, four blocks and four triples. Chicago allows a lot of paint points, so this was a favorable matchup, but it was still good to see both centers turn in strong stat lines. However, this is likely a one-time thing and not the start of a productive run for both.

Following a one-game absence with a quad injury, Nembhard was back to take on Chicago. He immediately returned to the starting unit, which pushed Jarace Walker to the bench and limited him to 20 minutes. As expected, Nembhard is averaging career highs in points, assists and three-pointers with Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) out for the season. This wasn’t a standout game, but it was good to see him log 32 minutes after an absence.

For the first time this season, the Pacers have a winning streak. Siakam scored 24 points in consecutive games, which resulted in back-to-back wins. Friday’s game was a blowout, but this one ended with Siakam hitting a contested mid-range shot with .1 seconds remaining. It was a fantastic shot to close out an exciting game, and Siakam continues to cook. He has scored at least 20 points in seven of their last eight games, and he has two steals in four straight.

Duren now has 11 double-doubles this season, including one in each of his last three appearances.

In fact, this was the first time Duren had recorded at least three blocks in a game this season.

At this stage in his career, Harris isn’t going to “wow” fantasy managers, but he will provide consistent value.

Cunningham finished Friday’s 112-109 defeat with his second triple-double of the season. However, unlike the line he recorded in Detroit’s November 10 win over the Wizards, turnovers were an issue on Friday. Cunningham finished with a season-high eight, and there weren’t any defensive stats on the line, either. While he has been a top-20 player in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks, that’s with an average of 4.4 turnovers per game. In eight-cat, Cunningham has been a top-10 player during that stretch. While he is susceptible to the high-turnover night, the overall production compensates for that.

Through their first nine games, he shot at least 50 percent from the floor just once; over their last nine games, he has shot below 50 percent just twice. This was also his first double-double since October, which was enough to help the Pacers get their third win of the year.
