Udrih was waived by the Pistons on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Udrih failed to get on the floor during the preseason and was essentially just brought in as a training camp body. With the likes of Reggie Jackson, Ish Smith and Langston Galloway all in the fold at point guard, there was no need to keep Udrih around for the regular season. The 13-year veteran could get some looks elsewhere as a solid mentor for younger players, though he won't be a fantasy relevant player no matter where he lands.

Udrih (knee) will miss 6-8 weeks, Jake Chapman of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Previous suspicions that Udrih would not be available for the remainder of the season were confirmed Monday. With Udrih out, Darrun Hilliard is expected to slide into his backup point guard role.

Updating a previous story, Udrih will, in fact, remain with the Pistons for the rest of the season, Shams Charania of The Vertical reports.

EDGE Analysis

Earlier Monday, Charania reported that the Pistons would release Udrih in order to sign D-Leaguer Lorenzo Brown, but the NBA's transaction deadline passed Sunday, and the team was unable to complete it in time. As a result, Brown will remain in the D-League, while Udrih will stick with Detroit for the final two games of the regular season. Udrih, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, is dealing with a sprained knee and is unlikely to play in either of the Pistons' remaining contests.

Udrih (knee) will be released by the Pistons, Shams Charania of The Vertical reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran guard is battling a sprained right knee that likely would have kept him out of the final two games of the season. As a result, the Pistons will use the opportunity to get a look at Lorenzo Brown, who they signed out of the D-League on Monday to replace Udrih on the roster. The 34-year-old Udrih appeared in 39 games, averaging 5.8 points, 3.4 assists and 1.5 rebounds in 14.4 minutes per game. Udrih was set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, so the decision to release him comes with minimal financial ramifications.

Udrih is dealing with a right knee sprain, though hasn't gotten X-rays yet, Aaron McMann of the MLive Media Group reports. For that reason, Coach Stan Van Gundy is "not optimistic" about Udrih playing in the Pistons' final two outings, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Udrih likely suffered the injury during Sunday's tilt against the Grizzlies, where he totaled 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five assists and two rebounds across 21 minutes. With Reggie Jackson (knee) ruled out for the season, the burden of the point guard role could solely fall on Ish Smith, who has taken over as the Pistons' starting point guard since Jackson was shut down. More information will likely come about the seriousness of Udrih's injury once the X-ray results become available, after which point Stan Van Gundy could make a decision about who will spend time at point guard over the last two contests if Udrih is sidelined.

Udrih finished with four points (2-7 FG), five assists, one rebound and one steal across 19 minutes in a 114-109 win over the Rockets on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The Pistons' decision to shut down Reggie Jackson (knee) for the season has opened up a rotation spot for Udrih, who is regularly seeing minutes in the teens while backing up Ish Smith. While the veteran has performed capably in that capacity, he's unlikely to see his role increase over the final three games of the regular season, especially with Smith continuing to play well. Udrih has averaged 6.6 points, 5.0 assists, 2.3 rebounds in 16.6 minutes per game since entering the rotation seven games ago.

Udrih (coach's decision) failed to play in a 106-101 win over the Cavaliers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Udrih hasn't seen the floor since Feb. 8, and with coach Stan Van Gundy more concerned with securing a playoff spot than finding time for his deep reserves at this stage of the season, don't expect the 34-year-old to make many more appearances over the Pistons' final 27 contests.

Udrih tweaked his ankle in Tuesday's practice and didn't take part in Wednesday's session, Aaron McMann of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The injury could put Udrih in jeopardy of missing Thursday's game against the Hornets, but the Pistons should have a better idea on his status following their morning shootaround. Udrih has been largely out of the rotation since early December, so his potential absence Thursday likely wouldn't have an impact on how coach Stan Van Gundy distributes the minutes in the backcourt.

Udrih (coach's decision) didn't see the floor in a 102-101 win over the Raptors on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Udrih has rarely seen the court outside of garbage time since Reggie Jackson returned from a knee injury in December, so it's no surprise that he was excluded from the rotation in a game that was decided by one point. The veteran is purely an insurance option at point guard behind Jackson and Ish Smith.

Udrih played 11 minutes and turned in four points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists and one steal in a 127-107 loss to the Warriors on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

It was Udrih's first appearance since Dec. 19, as he's been effectively squeezed out of the rotation since Reggie Jackson returned from a knee injury in early December. Barring another setback for Jackson or an injury to top backup Ish Smith, Udrih will fail to see the court in most competitive contests.
