Bojan Bogdanovic Out Wednesday, Likely Longer
1 year agoDetroit Pistons forward Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) won't play in Wednesday's opener against Miami. Bogdanovic is nursing a calf strain, with head coach Monty Williams reporting the team is being "really cautious" about putting the sharpshooter on the floor too quickly. He averaged a career-high 21.6 points last season and shot an impressive 41.1% from deep. The 34-year-old should remain an asset for fantasy managers, considering he will start for the Pistons for the foreseeable future. However, he'll need to stay healthy, something that's been an inconsistent issue over the years. Detroit also won't have Isaiah Livers (ankle) versus the Heat, so Alec Burks is the favorite to fill the void in the lineup until Bogdanovic returns, which may not be for at least a week or two. Joe Harris should also get some work from off the bench, albeit not enough to be relevant for fantasy managers.
