Gibson (hamstring) tallied five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt) in nine minutes off the bench in Saturday's 113-103 loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Making his return from the right hamstring strain that had sidelined him for each of the previous nine games, Gibson ended up being needed as a backup center while Detroit had only 10 players available. Assuming the Pistons get at least one of Jalen Duren (ankle), Tosan Evbuomwan (G League assignment) or Simone Fontecchio (toe) back in action for Tuesday's game in Philadelphia, Gibson will likely find himself outside of the rotation.

Gibson (hamstring) is out against the Grizzlies on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson has made just one appearance for the Pistons since the All-Star break, and with the team having nothing to play for, it seems unlikely he'll suit up for them again before the season ends on April 14. Gibson's next chance to feature will come against the Nets on Saturday in the second half of a back-to-back set.
