Brandon Knight shot 2-of-8 from the field for five points with four boards, two assists, one steal and one 3-pointer vs. the Raptors on Monday.

He played 29 minutes and it didn't look like his left ankle was bothering him. After heating up a couple weeks ago, Knight has been terrible in his last five games, shooting 31.6 percent from the field. He's not worth starting right now, which means he might not be worth owning at this point of the season.

Brandon Knight (ankle, nose) played 37 minutes on Sunday, scoring five points on 2-of-6 shooting with four assists, four turnovers in two steals. But

It's impressive that he played at all, one day after breaking his nose and aggravating his ankle injury. The playing time is encouraging and he's had a few nice runs as the Pistons starting SG, but we'd like to see him heat up (shooting 32 percent in the past six games) before deploying him.

Brandon Knight (ankle, nose) will play against the Bulls on Sunday.

It looked like Knight was going to see a multiple-game absence after suffering a second left ankle sprain in the past month, but this one wasn't severe. Also, he didn't return from the sprain, unlike the last time. Knight has played well enough to be picked up in standard leagues for his upcoming four-game week.

Brandon Knight (ankle, nose) practiced on Saturday and he will be a game-time decision on Sunday.

Knight broke his nose and tweaked an existing ankle injury on Friday, but he went through a full practice just 12 hours later. We won't question his toughness, but his fantasy value is shaky as long as he's playing on a balky left ankle.

Brandon Knight aggravated his ankle injury in Friday's loss and also broke his nose.

Ouch. Knight finished with four points on 1-of-4 shooting with three assists and that's it in 26 minutes. He's being called day-to-day and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bulls. Rodney Stuckey would theoretically be a beneficiary, but he went scoreless in 25 minutes of action tonight.

Brandon Knight sprained his left ankle in the fourth quarter of Friday's game against the Raptors.

This is the same left ankle that cost him four games earlier this month. Knight had to be helped off the floor and he's unlikely to face the Bulls on Sunday. Rodney Stuckey makes plenty of sense as a speculative add.

Brandon Knight suffered a broken nose in the first quarter of Friday's game against the Raptors and he has returned with a mask on his face.

He looks to be just fine and basically went back to the locker room just to get fitting for the mask. There shouldn't be any fantasy fallout from this injury.
