Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren will not play Friday in the team's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Duren is dealing with a sprained left ankle. Originally listed probable, the team downgraded him to questionable earlier in the day. That change in status foreshadowed this eventual absence. Nerlens Noel should see more work.
In 7 games this season, Duren is averaging 7.4 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 18.7 FanDuel points.
