On Tuesday night, the Detroit Pistons are set to take on the Miami Heat for their first set of NBA Cup action. Heading into the game, the Pistons had two of their key players on the injury report for the game.

Jalen Duren was the name expected to come up as he has been out for a few games after turning his ankle against the Charlotte Hornets last week.

Isaiah Stewart was the other player to make an appearance as he reportedly sprained his ankle against the Houston Rockets on Sunday afternoon.

When Duren got hurt last week, he had to undergo tests the next day to make sure it wasn’t anything significant. While the Pistons were happy to hear that Duren wouldn’t be out for long, his status for the next game was in question.

The Pistons listed Duren as questionable for their game against the Atlanta Hawks last Friday. He ended up missing the action, which led to Isaiah Stewart getting the start. The veteran center checked in for just over 30 minutes. He scored ten points and collected 11 rebounds in the close win.

On Sunday, Duren was once again questionable and ultimately ruled out. Stewart started in his absence, producing 16 points and eight rebounds in 33 minutes.

Heading into Tuesday’s game against Miami, the Pistons upgraded Duren’s status to questionable. Stewart was initially listed as probable.

Fortunately for the Pistons, Duren is expected to be cleared to play. According to Pistons writer Keith Langlois, Duren has been upgraded to available.

As for Stewart, he’s in the same boat.

In nine games this season, Duren has averaged 23 minutes on the court as a full-time starter. He recorded eight points per game, making 83 percent of his field goals. Duren is also averaging 9.7 rebounds per game so far this year.

Unless JB Bickerstaff decides to stick with Stewart, Duren will get the nod to start Tuesday against Miami. With both centers healthy and back in the rotation, that could leave Paul Reed waiting in the wings after picking up minutes the past three games.

The Pistons and Heat will tip at 7 PM ET.
