Typically, Robinson’s impact comes from behind the three-point line. However, that wasn’t the case in this game. He only took three triples, but he made all seven of his attempts from inside the arc, which was enough to help end Charlotte’s winning streak. This was Robinson’s fourth game with at least 15 points over Detroit’s last six, and he’ll look to stay hot in Toronto on Wednesday.

Harris is back in the lineup after missing Thursday’s loss to the Wizards with a hip injury. However, the Pistons don’t have Jalen Duren, so Stewart shifts into the starting center role. Also, Robinson is good to go after being listed as questionable with a left quad contusion.

When the Pistons beat the Nets by 53 on Sunday, Robinson didn’t play a big part in the game. The 31-year-old small forward had eight points and two three-pointers in 22 minutes. It was a different story on Tuesday against the Nuggets as Robinson’s 20 points and six three-pointers were instrumental in the Pistons’ 124-121 victory. He has provided 15th-round value this season and is viable in category leagues.

Robinson was 1-of-14 over his last two games from behind the three-point line entering play Friday, but bounced back in a big way as the Pistons beat the Warriors. The 31-year-old shooting guard had 15 points, all coming on five made three-pointers. With the Pistons desperate for shooting, Robinson has a clear role as the team is currently constructive. As long as he’s out of his shooting slump, he’ll have value in category leagues.

Robinson had made at least four three-pointers in six consecutive games entering play Tuesday. In a matchup with the Nuggets with Caris LeVert (illness) out, Robinson missed all eight of the three-pointers he attempted. His only points of the game came on a broken in-bounds play that led to a dunk with less than a minute left, giving the Pistons a three-point lead. Robinson is a better shooter than he showed Tuesday and it’s possible his back strain impacted his shot. He’ll have the chance to bounce back Thursday against the Suns.

No surprises for either player, as Robinson was listed as probable, and LeVert was listed as doubtful. Robinson has knocked down at least four treys in six straight games, and he’ll look to carry positive momentum into Friday’s tilt with Houston.

Robinson is managing a back sprain, but he is expected to suit up against Houston. He’ll look to stay red-hot in this game, having hit at least four triples in six consecutive games.

Robinson is usually relied on for points and three-pointers, and he’s upped his production in those categories recently. He’s now made at least four three-pointers in four consecutive games, his most productive stretch of the season to date. Even with Detroit’s depth, there’s a clear need for Robinson due to his shooting ability. That will preserve his value in category leagues.

On a night where the Pistons were without Cade Cunningham (wrist), Isaiah Stewart (illness), Jalen Duren (ankle) and Tobias Harris (hip), Robinson went off for a season-high 20 first-half points, going 5-of-6 from three-point range to help Detroit open a 19-point lead at the break. Amazingly, he failed to score in the final two quarters, attempting just one shot during that span. The 31-year-old sharpshooter looked like he was on the verge of challenging his previous career-high mark of 34 points in the early stages of this one, but the Clippers put the clamps on him down the home stretch. The Eastern Conference-leading Pistons are off until Thursday when they host the Suns before closing out the week with a favorable matchup against the Pacers.

Despite having a left calf contusion, Robinson is on track to play based on the probable tag. If he’s available, Robinson will be in the starting lineup.

Robinson has now made at least three three-pointers in four straight appearances, which is precisely how he’s expected to offer value in fantasy basketball. Averaging 2.9 three-pointers per game, the Pistons wing is ranked outside the top-150 in eight-cat formats. Unless there’s a need for three-pointers and not much else, fantasy managers in most leagues can afford to leave Robinson on the waiver wire.

Robinson had a nice game after being listed on the injury report with a knee issue. The 31-year-old small forward had 15 points and four three-pointers in 25 minutes in the win over the Hornets. Robinson continues to have a solid season with the Pistons and the knee injury doesn’t appear to be a lingering issue.

Robinson exited Thursday’s loss to the Mavericks during the third quarter with a left knee contusion. Caris LeVert picked up additional minutes in Robinson’s absence. Still, he’s unlikely to receive a notable boost to his fantasy value with the starting wing considered probable to play on Saturday.

Robinson was limited to 13 minutes in Thursday’s overtime defeat, as he limped off the court less than a minute into the third quarter after suffering an apparent left knee injury. While he did not shoot the ball well in Dallas, scoring two points on 1-of-7 shooting, Robinson’s perimeter shooting ability has been an essential factor in the Pistons’ 21-6 start. Caris LeVert replaced him at the time of the injury; he and Jaden Ivey are the players most likely to be asked to pick up the slack if Robinson misses time.

Robinson bounced back from a less-productive seven-point outing against the Bucks by draining four three-pointers and finishing as one of Detroit’s top scorers in the blowout victory. He was one of eight Pistons to score in double figures, and accounted for one quarter of Detroit’s three-point production as a team. Robinson has started in all games he’s appeared in during his first season with the Pistons. He continues to help the team offensively.

Robinson will be back after a two-game absence, which will push Daniss Jenkins back to the bench. Jenkins had been effective as a starter in the past, but this was a rough two-game stretch for him. He’ll lose the streaming upside he held as a reserve.

Robinson has missed Detroit’s last two games, resulting in Daniss Jenkins moving into the starting lineup. However, the second-year guard has effectively split minutes with Caris LeVert, and the production has not been good enough for him to be worth the risk in most redraft leagues.

Robinson will miss a second straight game with a sprained ankle, which should mean Daniss Jenkins remains in the starting lineup. While his ceiling as a scorer is limited playing alongside Cade Cunningham, Jenkins can be helpful to managers needing rebounds and assists when allowed to start.

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.

Robinson will be sidelined for the first time this season, which will open up minutes for Caris LeVert, Jaden Ivey and Daniss Jenkins. One of them will start, and with Ivey still having his minutes managed, it will likely be one of the other two.

Robinson has been a fixture of the starting lineup this season, but there is a chance he is sidelined to start off the week. Caris LeVert (knee) is probable and could start if Robinson is out, though Jaden Ivey and Daniss Jenkins are also candidates to fill the void.

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.

After shooting 1-of-8 from deep in Monday’s win over the Pacers, Robinson was slightly better in Wednesday’s loss to Boston. After an uneven start to the season, he’s meshed well in Detroit, hitting double figures in points in seven of his last eight appearances. The lingering question for Robinson is whether he’ll remain in the starting lineup once Jaden Ivey (7/4/0/1) is no longer under a minutes restriction. Ivey played 15 minutes off the bench, the second time he’s reached that number in three appearances.

Given how shorthanded the Pistons were on Wednesday, Robinson’s shot volume was bound to increase. What did not change was the types of shots he took, with 10 of the veteran wing’s shots coming from beyond the arc. Robinson made seven, establishing season-highs in points and three-pointers. Over his last three games, he’s shot 14-of-28 from distance, and Robinson has made at least three triples in six of his last seven. Rostered in eight percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has provided eighth-round per-game value during this seven-game stretch.

Robinson has made multiple three-pointers in eight of his ten games this season, with Sunday’s tally of four matching his previous high. On most nights, he’s essentially a points and three-pointers option for fantasy managers, so there isn’t much value to be had when the shots aren’t falling. However, Robinson recorded three steals against the 76ers, matching his total entering Sunday. Caris LeVert (14 points, three rebounds, one block and four three-pointers) also shot the ball well from deep on Sunday, but he also brings a relatively low fantasy ceiling to the table on most nights.

Robinson enjoyed his best game as a Piston on Saturday, shooting over 50 percent from the field and notching a season-high point total. The issue thus far has been inconsistency, with Robinson shooting 42.9 percent from the field. However, he’s still averaging 2.5 three-pointers per game, and that’s the category he’s primarily rostered for. Robinson will look to build on Saturday’s performance when the Pistons visit the Grizzlies on Monday.

Robinson bounced back after scoring two points on seven shots in 32 minutes in the season opener against the Bulls. The 31-year-old small forward had 17 points on nine shots including four made three-pointers. Robinson is essentially first in line to fill the Malik Beasley-sized hole in the Pistons’ lineup and he did an adequate job of that against the Rockets on Friday.

With Jaden Ivey (knee) expected to miss at least four weeks, the Pistons have a hole to fill in their starting lineup. Robinson started the team’s last two preseason games, and his shooting ability may keep the veteran wing in that role. All eight of Robinson’s field goal attempts came from beyond the arc, and having a credible shooter on the floor can open up space for Cade Cunningham and the other Pistons starters. Ron Holland (4/3/4/1 in 22 minutes) and first-round pick Chaz Lanier (9/0/4/1/1 with three three-pointers in 23 minutes) may also see their roles expand with Ivey out, but Robinson is a safe target for managers seeking a three-point streamer.

With Tim Hardaway Jr. in Denver and Malik Beasley no longer in the Pistons’ plans, Robinson was brought in via offseason trade due to Detroit’s need for perimeter shooting. While he did have his moments in Miami, a change of scenery may benefit the veteran sharpshooter. Robinson’s eight shot attempts were tops among Pistons reserves on Monday, with Caris LeVert (two points on 1-of-8 shooting and one assist) also hitting that number. Robinson will remain a specialist in deeper fantasy leagues, but he may have more consistent opportunities to produce in Detroit than he did in his final seasons with the Heat.
