Pistons' Jon Leuer (knee) makes an early exit on Sunday

Detroit Pistons forward/center Jon Leuer (knee soreness) was forced to make an early exit from Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

What It Means:

There are still no reports on the severity of the soreness, but he will have a day to rest before the Pistons take on the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday. If Leuer can't play, look for Tobias Harris to see increased minutes at power forward, while the thin frontcourt would likely open up some additional minutes for Boban Marjanovic.

Leuer is averaging career-highs in all of points (10.9) rebounds (6.1) and assists (1.7) per game this season. He has also managed a career-best .588 true shooting percentage to go with a solid 12.6 percent total rebound rate, and his 2.5 nERD on the season is the best mark among Pistons players.
