With Caris LeVert (knee) sidelined by a knee injury, Sasser has stepped up for the Pistons. He followed up a 19-point performance against the Lakers with 18 more on Thursday, and the overall stat line was solid. Rostered in one percent of Yahoo! leagues, Sasser is not someone who has to be rostered. But he is worth watching, especially if LeVert and Tobias Harris (hip) remain out.

With Caris LeVert (knee) unavailable, there were a few more minutes available to Sasser. And the third-year guard gave the Pistons an immense boost off the bench, scoring a season-high 19 points in 24 minutes. Sasser’s stat line had everything but a blocked shot, but he showed that he can provide shooting off the bench when his name is called. Tuesday’s performance does not change Sasser’s fantasy outlook; he’ll need to string together a few solid performances to become worth the risk. But he is someone to watch for now.

Sasser is officially available to make his season debut on Saturday, improving Detroit’s depth on the perimeter. However, he’s unlikely to get the run needed to impact fantasy basketball. Daniss Jenkins may fall out of the rotation entirely with Sasser available.

Sasser is closing in on his season debut, which is likely to come Saturday against the Bucks given his probable listing. The 25-year-old point guard will improve the Pistons’ depth, but isn’t relevant for fantasy managers.

Sasser was close to making his season debut, but he will have to wait at least one more game. It will be great to see him back, but his role will likely be too small for him to be rostered in standard leagues.

Sasser, who has been out with a right hip impingement, could be available to make his season debut on Friday. However, that does not guarantee that he’ll play rotation minutes, especially with the Pistons mainly being healthy. Unless you’re in a dynasty league, there’s no need to roster Sasser right now.

Sasser has yet to suit up this season, and he will be out until at least early December. He may be able to fill some of the reserve guard minutes when healthy, but Jaden Ivey (knee) should be back before him, so there is no guarantee Sasser is part of the rotation when he returns.

Sasser has not played a game this season, and that will not change on Monday. His absence does not impact fantasy basketball, as starter Ausar Thompson is already rostered in most leagues.

Sasser remains out for another game and has yet to make an appearance for the Pistons this season. When Cade Cunningham is not in the game, Detroit has relied on a combination of Ausar Thompson and Daniss Jenkins to run the show. While Thompson should already be rostered everywhere, there’s no need to consider streaming Jenkins.

Sasser has yet to play in a game this season, leaving the Pistons light at point guard behind starter Cade Cunningham. Ausar Thompson has spent more time on the ball when Cunningham rests, and Daniss Jenkins has played limited minutes off the bench.

Sasser, who has been dealing with a right hip impingement, has yet to appear in a game this season. With the Pistons putting the ball in Ausar Thompson’s hands more, especially when Cade Cunningham is resting, Sasser’s availability will not impact fantasy basketball. However, his return would give the Pistons another option to consider on the perimeter.

Marcus Sasser’s regular-season debut will be on hold a bit longer, as a hip injury will keep him on the sideline. The third-year guard averaged 6.6 points and 2.3 assists per game in his sophomore campaign. He’ll likely play a reserve role upon his return to the rotation.

Sasser was listed as doubtful ahead of the season opener as well. Caris LeVert should fill out the backup guard minutes once again with Sasser expected to remain out, and Ausar Thompson should see extra playmaking opportunities after dishing out seven assists on Wednesday.

Sasser was initially doubtful for Wednesday’s season opener. His absence does not impact fantasy basketball, as starter Cade Cunningham will get the lion’s share of the available minutes at point guard. Daniss Jenkins may play a few minutes off the bench, but he is not worth streaming in this spot.

Sasser is on track to miss Wednesday’s season opener due to a right hip impingement. Daniss Jenkins played 17 minutes off the bench in the Pistons’ preseason finale and may crack the rotation on Wednesday. However, that isn’t guaranteed, and a likely increase in minutes for Cade Cunningham means there isn’t much to gain from streaming Jenkins.

Sasser was one of two new starters, stepping in for Cade Cunningham in a game that had no bearing on the Pistons’ playoff seeding. While he did not shoot the ball as well as he’s capable of, going 1-of-6 from three, the second-year point guard recorded a season-high assist tally. With Cunningham and Dennis Schroder in the mix, Sasser is unlikely to play rotation minutes in the Pistons’ first-round series against the Knicks. And the former’s presence as Detroit’s franchise cornerstone is why Sasser is unlikely to be a consistent factor in fantasy basketball next season.

Cade Cunningham and Ausar Thompson are out for Sunday’s regular-season finale, and they’ve been replaced in the lineup by Sasser and Holland. Both youngsters are worth the risk in active deep leagues, as regulars Hardaway, Harris and Duren are unlikely to play starters’ minutes. Also, Paul Reed is worth a dice roll since Isaiah Stewart is unavailable.

The Pistons were again without Cade Cunningham, whose absence ensured Sasser of rotation minutes off the bench. The second-year guard made the most of his opportunity, recording a career-high point total with five three-pointers. Sasser scored 20 points or more in consecutive games for the second time in his career. Dennis Schroder (7/2/6) may remain the starter if Cunningham continues to miss time, but deep-league managers should not overlook Sasser in that scenario.

Sasser wasn’t the choice to start once Cade Cunningham was scratched from the Pistons’ lineup, but that did not prevent the second-year guard from having one of his best games this season. The 20 points were two shy of Sasser’s season-high, and this was his first game in double figures since February 11. Dennis Schroder (16/1/5/2 with one three-pointer) received the starting nod and would be the superior streaming option if Cunningham is unavailable for Tuesday’s game against the Spurs.
