John Henson

Pistons' John Henson (ankle) expected to miss a week

Detroit Pistons forward/center John Henson (left ankle sprain) is expected to miss about a week.

What It Means:

Henson exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the New York Knicks. Thon Maker will likely replace Henson in the starting lineup and Sekou Doumbouya could see an uptick in minutes off the bench.

Maker is averaging 8.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.7 steals, 1.2 blocks, and 0.7 3-pointers as a starter (13 games) this season.
