Brown scored seven points and grabbed eight boards in Sunday's win over the Sixers.

Spin: Both marks were season-highs. Brown continues to play a limited role, while Ben Wallace is flourishing as the starting center. The Pistons' rotation now seems set, so Brown will likely need an injury to open up more playing time.Mon, Nov 9

Kwame Brown had zero points and four rebounds in 13 minutes off the Pistons' bench on Saturday. Brown was slated to start at center, but an ill-timed hand injury changed those plans and now he might never overtake Ben Wallace (eight points, 10 rebounds in 38 minutes) for the starting job. What the Pistons really need is a low-post threat on offense.Related: Ben Wallace

Kwame Brown posted only four points and four rebounds in Wednesday's opener against the Grizzlies. Brown, who battled a hand injury in the preseason, played 25 minutes in a three-man frontcourt rotation with Ben Wallace and Charlie Villanueva. Brown is valued more for his defense and likely won't be much of a fantasy factor. Look for other options.Source: Michigan Live.com Related: Ben Wallace, Charlie Villanueva

Javi | MySpace VideoWe’ll start with an unpopular opinion: Ron Artest isn’t to blame for the Malice at the Palace.* As Bill Waton on the replay, it wasn’t that hard of a foul on Ben Wallace. Clearly, Wallace overreacted.* Was Artest foolish to lie down on the scorer’s table? Yes. Would he have had a

Wallace bounced back from Tuesday's poor performance with a 12-rebound effort against the Blazers on Wednesday night.

Spin: He also picked up a block and steal in the loss. In typical Wallace fashion, he didn't offer anything on the offensive end, finishing 0-for-2 with zero points. Continue to look his way if you can afford the lack of offense and need help in boards, blocks and steals.Thu, Nov 19

News: Detroit PF Ben Wallace was held scoreless on Wednesday against the Blazers but did manage to lead the team in rebounds with 12. He attempted only rwo shots in the game, missing both. Wallace also had a blocked shot, two assists and a steal in the game.

Analysis: Wallace continues to struggle to score points with the Pistons but remains a cheap source of assists. He remains just a low-end Fantasy option however

Prince (back) took part in a light practice on Friday, the Detroit Free Press reports.

Spin: He jogged and took some shots, but admitted that he wasn't ready for contact. Until he's able to prove he can take a physical beating in practice, Prince won't be seeing any game action. Keep him on your bench.Fri, Nov 20

Prince said on Tuesday that his back is feeling better, but there's still no timetable for his return, the Detroit Free Press reports.

Spin: Prince joined the team on it's current four-game road trip because he didn't want to be away from Pistons strength and conditioning coach Arnie Kander for the next week. The fact Prince is able to take long flights with the team is a good indication his rehab is progressing well, but he's still not expected to suit up for any games during the trip.Wed, Nov 18

News: The Detroit News reports Pistons forward Tayshaun Prince is on Detroit's current four-game road trip, but he's not expected to play any time soon with a ruptured disc in his back. "It's very frustrating," said Prince on Tuesday. "When you're not playing, you're not part of that family, that bond, and you want to be part it, part of being with the guys. Your competitiveness makes you want to play through anything, but you can't do it." Prince has missed the last seven games and pronounced himself "out indefinitely."

Analysis: It appears safe to keep Prince reserved in all leagues for the time being and hope he can return following the road trip. When healthy, Prince is a No. 3 Fantasy forward in all scoring formats

In nine games as a starter, Jerebko is averaging 5.3 points and 3.9 rebounds.

Spin: The Swedish rookie continues to start in place of the injured Tayshaun Prince (back) despite his limited offensive contributions. The Pistons like Jerebko's energy on the defensive end of the court, but he won't become a fantasy option until he develops on the other end of the floor.Thu, Nov 19

Jonas Jerebko started for injured Tayshaun Prince (back) on Sunday, scoring 10 points on 5-of-10 shooting with five rebounds and zero assists in 22 minutes. Prince is not looking like a good bet to return soon, so at a minimum Jerebko will get a chance at production. Whether or not he does anything with it is another question, but he certainly is worth watching for the next week or so.

News: Tayshaun Prince (back) missed his fourth straight game Sunday, while Richard Hamilton (ankle) was out for the sixth time in a row. Pistons coach John Kuester does not expect either to return within the next week. Ben Gordon and Jonas Jerebko have been starting in their place.

Analysis: Gordon should be started in all Fantasy leagues regardless of whether or not he comes off the bench as he sees starter's minutes and shot attempts off the bench. The absence of Hamilton, however, likely means more minutes and shot attempts than normal. Jerebko had 10 points and 5 rebounds Sunday against Philadelphia and could be worth a low-end flier in deep leagues

Pistons coach John Kuester said Summers, who has played only one minute this season, could get an opportunity to play soon, the Detroit Free Press reports.

Spin: Summers was the Pistons most impressive rookie during the Las Vegas Summer League, but he was outplayed by Jonas Jerebko and Austin Daye in training camp. Any time that Summers does receive is expected to be limited and would likely disappear after Tayshaun Prince returns from his back injury.Mon, Nov 9

Summers could see time at shooting guard, small forward and power forward for the Pistons this season, the Detroit News reports.

Summers could see time at shooting guard, small forward and power forward for the Pistons this season, the Detroit News reports.

Spin: The Pistons feel like they got a steal when they selected Summers with the 35th pick of draft. His summer league performance in Las Vegas backed up the Pistons expectations as he poured in 18 points per contest. Summers won't get the chance to crack the Pistons' starting lineup anytime soon, but his versatility could open the door for around 20 minutes off the bench.Sat, Sep 19

Bynum (ankle) took part in Friday's practice and is expected to play Saturday against the Jazz, the Detroit Free Press reports.

Spin: Bynum originally suffered the injury late in Tuesday's loss to the Lakers. He appeared slowed against the Blazers on Wednesday and missed parts of practice, but should be a safe play going forward.Fri, Nov 20

It was revealed Thursday that Will Bynum suffered from a sprained ankle on Tuesday against the Lakers, which contributed to a lack of explosion in Wednesday's game against the Blazers. He obviously played through the injury so it's not serious, but if you were wondering what caused his down night (eight points, 21 minutes), this was probably it. He should be good to go for Saturday's game, but it could be worth watching to see if he struggles in the tail end of the back-to-back on Sunday.Source: Detroit News

Bynum played Wednesday night despite suffering a sprained right ankle in Tuesday's loss to the Lakers, the Detroit News reports.

Spin: Bynum was slowed by the injury, but the fact he played is a good indication he won't miss any time going forward. Nevertheless, keep tabs on the situation before inserting him into your lineup.Thu, Nov 19

The Detroit Free-Press is reporting that Pistons' guard Richard Hamilton took part in light practice on Friday. Hamilton took shots, but was unable to run or jump.

Our View: It was a good sign the Rip got out there today, but he doesn't look close to a return. Fantasy owners need to exercise patience, as he is hoping to make a return in a few weeks.

Richard Hamilton (ankle) and Tayshaun Prince (back) both took part in some shooting drills Friday, but neither was ready for contact. Both players are expected to be out until Nov. 25 at the very earliest. Will Bynum (ankle) was also limited at Friday's practice, but is expected to play Saturday against the Jazz.Source: Detroit Free Press Related: Tayshaun Prince, Will Bynum

Hamilton (ankle) took part in a light practice on Friday, the Detroit Free Press reports.

Spin: This marked the first time Hamilton has took shots since suffering the injury, but he still hasn't been cleared to run or jump. It's nice to see him on the court again, but he won't be close to returning until he's able to get through more strenuous workouts. Keep him stashed on your bench.Fri, Nov 20

The Detroit Pistons have released 2009 second round draft pick Deron Washington.

Our View: There are plenty of teams worse than the Pistons who could probably use a nice defensive forward on their bench, so Washington could very well appear in an NBA game at some point in the future.

Washington was waived by the Pistons on Monday, the Detroit News reports.

Spin: Washington was a 2nd round pick in the 2008 draft. He played overseas for a year before returning to the Pistons under the belief that he would serve as an end-of-the-bench backup to Rip Hamilton. The move leaves the Pistons with 14 men on their roster going into the season.Mon, Oct 26

The Pistons waived swingman Deron Washington on Monday, cutting their roster to 14 players. Washington was selected with the 59th pick in last year's draft, but never made an impact with the Pistons. He is a quality defender who may very well resurface with another NBA team.
