DET • Shooting Guard and Small Forward • #4

Green didn’t get the starting nod with Tobias Harris (knee) sidelined, but he started the second half of this game in place of Paul Reed. He played 27 minutes to Reed’s 18 and was far more productive. Detroit has already locked up the top seed in the East, so Harris could get more rest days this week, which may lead to more minutes for Green. He has been a solid rotation piece for them, but he hasn’t had many games as productive as this one.

Green was superb from beyond the arc on Monday, with his individual production there amounting to almost a third of his team’s production from distance. The veteran forward also chipped in on the glass and collected a couple of steals during his 30 minutes of game action. Green has now made multiple three-pointers in three straight games. However, he isn’t someone fantasy managers should be looking to add for impact during Championship Week.

Green and Sasser are good to go for Thursday’s game, and they’re likely to provide added depth off the bench. However, with Duncan Robinson being a game-time decision, Green could move into the starting lineup.

Green was initially questionable for Wednesday’s loss to the Hawks, a game in which he played 15 minutes off the bench. He’ll likely take on a similar workload on Thursday, which limits Green’s fantasy value.

Despite dealing with an ankle issue, Green will suit up on Wednesday and look to provide an impact off Detroit’s bench. The veteran guard is averaging 6.8 points and 2.7 rebounds per game this season. He’s unlikely to make a notable impact from a fantasy basketball standpoint.

Green has been playing a role on the wing off the bench for Detroit as of late, so his potential absence will open up extra minutes. Ron Holland should take on a larger role if Green is unavailable.

Already without Ausar Thompson, the Pistons won’t have Tobias Harris for Friday’s game. Green moves into the starting lineup and is worthy of streaming consideration in deep leagues. Due to Thompson’s continued absence, Sasser remains in the starting lineup.

Seven Pistons finished Thursday’s 131-107 victory in double figures, with the reserves getting a little more playing time due to the game getting out of hand. However, Green didn’t need “garbage time” to have one of his most productive games of the season. The 17 points were the most in a game for him since hitting that number in a January 5 blowout of the Knicks, and he scored eight in the third quarter. Friday’s game against the Grizzlies may be another opportunity for Green to put up solid numbers against a shorthanded opponent.

The Pistons won’t have multiple players for Saturday’s game, including Cade Cunningham and Isaiah Stewart. As a result, Ivey will make another start at point guard, while Green slides into the lineup to replace Stewart. Reed is the starting center, and the opportunity makes him a worthwhile streamer.

Green continues to play more minutes with Jalen Duren, Tobias Harris and Caris LeVert missing some time. The 32-year-old shooting guard isn’t worth rostering in most leagues, but in the right matchup he can score around 20 points and make 3-4 threes. That might be enough to make him worth considering as a streamer in some deeper formats.

Green continues to benefit from the Pistons still missing multiple starters. The 32-year-old shooting guard played 27 minutes off the bench against the Pacers on Monday and scored 20 points. Until the Pistons get back to full strength, Green can be used in deeper formats where fantasy managers need points and threes.

Green led the Pistons in minutes with 37 and points with 21 in the victory over the 76ers on Friday. The 32-year-old shooting guard was the primary scorer for a Detroit team missing nearly all of its starters. Green will continue to be a deep league streamer while the Pistons are still missing regulars.

Already without Tobias Harris and Isaiah Stewart, the Pistons won’t have Ausar Thompson for Monday’s game, either. He’ll be replaced in the starting lineup by Green, who’s worth a look in deep leagues due to the matchup and the Pistons’ lack of healthy forwards. Holland, who remains in the starting lineup, will also be worthy of deep-league consideration.

After three-plus seasons with the Bulls, Green split the 2024-25 season between New Orleans and Cleveland. In 68 total games, the 6-foot-5 wing averaged 5.1 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 18.5 minutes. While Green did start 19 games last season, 18 with the injury-riddled Pelicans, the production was not consistent enough to make him a player worth holding on fantasy rosters. That’s unlikely to change in 2025-26 given Detroit’s depth.
