Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Questionable to play Saturday
Rotowire
Robinson (hip) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves.
Robinson was a late scratch from Thursday's game against the Pelicans due to a right hip strain. If he's unable to play Saturday, then Kevin Huerter would likely remain in Detroit's starting lineup against Minnesota. Since the All-Star break, Robinson has connected on 41.0 percent of his three-point attempts (on 6.4 3PA/G) while averaging 11.1 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.6 assists over 26.2 minutes per game.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Will play Thursday
Rotowire
Robinson (wrist/hip) is available and listed in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.
The Pistons downgraded Robinson to questionable shortly before tipoff, but the sharpshooter will ultimately gain clearance to play for the second leg of a back-to-back set. Robinson has averaged 10.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.7 three-pointers in 27.7 minutes per contest in his last six games.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Downgraded to questionable
Rotowire
The Pistons downgraded Robinson to questionable for Thursday's game against New Orleans due to right wrist injury management and right hip soreness.
Detroit previously tagged Robinson as probable and listed him only with the wrist injury, so the sore hip might be something that cropped up during his 32-minute appearance in Wednesday's 130-129 overtime loss to the Hawks. A decision on Robinson's status looks like it may come closer to the 7 p.m. ET tipoff, so fantasy managers planning on streaming him into lineups will likely want to keep close tabs on the situation.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Probable for Thursday
Rotowire
Robinson (wrist) is probable for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.
This probable designation is for injury management, and Robinson is one of several Pistons to be labeled this way. For now, the assumption is that he will be fine to play for the second leg of this back-to-back set.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Limited impact in win
Rotowire
Robinson registered eight points (3-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 130-117 win over the Wizards.
Robinson remains a key part of Detroit's rotation, but his overall fantasy impact has been fairly limited. Over his last eight games, he's averaging 10.8 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.1 three-pointers in 23.6 minutes per contest.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Drains five triples vs. Philly
Rotowire
Robinson posted 19 points (7-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt), four assists, two rebounds and one steal over 25 minutes during the Pistons' 131-109 win over the 76ers on Thursday.
Robinson scored eight points in both the first and third quarter of Thursday's game and sat out the entire fourth frame due to Detroit's commanding lead. The sharpshooting wing ended up leading both teams in scoring, and it was the ninth time this season that Robinson connected on at least five triples. He has connected on 40.5 percent of his three-point attempts (6.6 3PA/G) since the All-Star break, and over that span he has averaged 11.2 points, 2.4 assists and 2.3 rebounds over 25.8 minutes per game.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Perfect from field in win
Rotowire
Robinson ended with 15 points (6-6 FG, 3-3 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 16 minutes during Tuesday's 138-100 win over the Nets.
The Pistons didn't have problems securing a 38-point blowout win over the Nets, and Robinson was one of the many players who made their presence felt on offense. Even though he doesn't have the same impact as other players in the offensive scheme, Robinson's elite three-point shooting and floor-spacing ability are key for the Pistons. He's drained multiple three-pointers in 14 of his 17 appearances since the beginning of February.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Lands three triples in loss
Rotowire
Robinson supplied 15 points (3-5 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT) and four assists in 23 minutes during Saturday's 107-105 loss to the Nets.
Robinson connected on at least three triples for the first time in his past five games, although he added very little else. Despite playing a key role for the Pistons, Robinson has been little more than a possible three-point streaming option for those in standard fantasy formats. Through 60 regular-season games, he has averaged 12.0 points and 2.9 three-pointers, leaving him well outside the top 150.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Notches 13 points
Rotowire
Robinson chipped in 13 points (5-15 FG, 3-11 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists in 27 minutes during Monday's 114-103 loss to the Spurs.
Robinson's upside is limited beyond his three-point shooting, so the five assists were a nice surprise for his fantasy managers. Over his last eight games, he's returning 10th-round value in nine-category formats with averages of 15.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 3.6 three-pointers.

Robinson stepped up as a scorer Monday, trailing only Cade Cunningham for Detroit in a winning effort. Known primarily as a dangerous perimeter threat, Robinson did most of his damage inside the arc, hitting just one three-pointer and snapping a five-game streak of knocking down multiple triples.

Rotowire

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Strong effort in win
Rotowire
Robinson registered 20 points (7-12 FG, 6-9 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 124-121 win over the Nuggets.
This was a terrific showing for Robinson, and the timing is good for him too -- the Pistons just acquired Kevin Huerter from Chicago on Tuesday, and he could provide some competition for Robinson on the wings with both players specializing in perimeter shooting. Robinson's role will be worth monitoring closely going forward.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Finds rhythm from downtown
Rotowire
Robinson chipped in 15 points (5-11 FG, 5-10 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Friday's 131-124 win over the Warriors.
The five made three-pointers were more than in his prior three games combined, when he went just 4-for-20 from downtown and scored a total of 24 points. Robinson was mostly productive in January, and over 14 games on the month he averaged 12.5 points, 3.0 threes, 2.1 boards and 1.5 assists in 26.1 minutes a contest while shooting 41.2 percent from beyond the arc.
Robinson provided nine points (4-11 FG, 1-6 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal over 30 minutes during Thursday's 114-96 loss to the Suns.
Robinson has been off from three-point territory over the past two games, converting just one of his 14 attempts from distance. The three-point marksman has hit a minor bump in the road, but he should snap out of his shooting funk soon enough, and he'll have an opportunity to do so Friday against the Warriors.

Pistons' Duncan Robinson: Probable for Friday

Robinson is probable for Friday's game against Houston with a lower-back sprain.
It doesn't sound like the issue will be severe enough to stop the sharpshooter from playing Friday. Robinson has averaged 14.1 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 5.0 three-pointers in 25.7 minutes per contest over nine games this month, shooting a scorching 50.0 percent from downtown.

Rotowire
Robinson ended Thursday's 108-105 win over the Suns with 19 points (7-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-3 FT), one rebound and one block across 27 minutes.
Robinson has achieved double-digit scoring in three straight games, averaging 17.0 points and making 4.3 threes on 61.9 percent from deep. He's streakier than fantasy managers would like, but the Pistons need his spacing desperately, so he'll be out there firing away.
