Simone Fontecchio Unavailable Monday
9 months agoDetroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (toe) will miss Monday's meeting with the Celtics. He was initially labeled as questionable for the game but has now been ruled out with a toe contusion. The Italian forward got hurt at the worst possible time, as Fontecchio has enjoyed a very good run in the team, averaging 15.7 points in 31.9 minutes across March. He's benefited from Ausar Thompson's (medical illness) absence, and it might now be Evan Fournier's time to shine. He already saw 31 minutes against Miami on Sunday, hitting four triples for a nice 18-point outing. Fournier should be playing with a chip on his shoulder after the C's cut ties with him in 2021.
