Detroit Pistons guard/forward
Hamidou Diallo rolled his right ankle in Monday's defeat to Portland and it's unclear if he can play in Tuesday's matchup against Washington. He was seen leaving the arena wearing a walking boot. Diallo had a busy 27-minute night against the Blazers, shooting 4-for-10 from the field en route to finishing with nine points, eight rebounds, three assists and one steal. The Pistons have already suffered a number of other injuries in recent times and it's lifted Diallo into a significant role in the rotation. Across his last nine appearances, the 24-year-old has averaged 14.4 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals.

Detroit Pistons guard
Hamidou Diallo will be back with the organization next season. As expected, the Pistons have decided to exercise their $5.2 million team option on Diallo. He has been a solid piece for Detroit, so the team wants to keep him around. It'll be interesting to see how they split up the playing time with multiple young guards on the roster.
Cade Cunningham and
Jaden Ivey are expected to play heavy minutes with
Killian Hayes and Diallo getting the backup minutes. Diallo should have fairly decent streaming value, assuming he can carve out a role for himself next season.

Detroit Pistons guard
Hamidou Diallo is likely to remain with the team for at least one more season. Diallo was traded to Detroit mid-way through the 2020 campaign. He has played fairly well and is expected to be part of the young core in Detroit. The team option is worth $5.2 million, so very affordable for what Diallo brings to the court. He doesn't bring much in terms of fantasy value. However, he is a solid defender and could be a long term piece for this organization.

Detroit Pistons shooting guard/small forward
Hamidou Diallo (finger) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest vs. the Heat as he continues to battle a sprained finger on his left hand. Diallo has now missed four of Detroit's last five games, funneling
Isaiah Livers into a larger role among the second unit. With
Killian Hayes (abductor) expected to be available, the second-year guard should be in line for an expanded role for as long as Diallo is out of the mix. Having exceeded the 20-minute threshold just twice since Feb. 16, Diallo's season-long stock is on the descent over the final month. His next chance to suit up comes Thursday against Orlando.
