Pistons Sharpshooter in Danger of Missing Matchup vs Raptors
Saddiq Bey Listed as Questionable With Ankle Injury
The Detroit Pistons may be without sharpshooter Saddiq Bey when they host the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night. Bey is listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain, which he suffered in the Pistons' 104-91 loss to the Boston Celtics on Monday.
Bey Has Been a Key Contributor for Pistons
Bey has been a key contributor for the Pistons this season, averaging 12.7 points per game on 45.5% shooting from the field. He is also averaging 4.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game.
Bey's absence would be a big blow to the Pistons, who are already struggling to score the basketball. The Pistons are averaging just 102.8 points per game, which is 29th in the NBA.
Pistons Hope Bey Can Play Through Injury
The Pistons are hoping that Bey will be able to play through the injury, but they will not rush him back. If Bey is unable to play, the Pistons will likely start Rodney McGruder in his place.
McGruder is a veteran wing who has started 10 games for the Pistons this season. He is averaging 5.8 points per game on 42.9% shooting from the field.
Raptors Have Won Three Straight
The Raptors have won three straight games and are looking to extend their winning streak to four games against the Pistons. The Raptors are led by Pascal Siakam, who is averaging 25.4 points per game this season.
The Pistons will need to play their best game of the season if they want to beat the Raptors. The Raptors are a tough matchup for the Pistons, who are struggling to score the basketball and have been without Cade Cunningham for the past two games.
