Pistons' Dwight Buycks (illness) won't play Saturday night
According to The Athletic's James Edwards III, Detroit Pistons point guard Dwight Buycks will not play against the Miami Heat on Saturday night.
What It Means:
Buycks is joining Luke Kennard (foot) on the sidelines, so the Pistons will be a little thin in the backcourt. Expect Ish Smith to see an uptick in minutes with Langston Galloway getting additional minutes off the bench.
In his last 3 games, Buycks is averaging 19.0 FanDuel points over 18.4 minutes per game.
