The rookie guard will be available for Monday's game against the Spurs but isn't expected to be featured in the rotation.

EDGE Analysis

Lanier last played Feb. 6 and logged seven points in six minutes during garbage time, but he has not seen significant playing time in 2026. He will likely continue to split time between the two clubs for the remainder of the season.

Lanier will return to the Pistons after he played 28 minutes Tuesday in the Cruise's 135-105 victory over the Memphis Hustle, finishing with 15 points (6-14 FG, 3-9 3Pt), two steals, one assist and one block. The rookie will likely be available for the Pistons' next game Thursday against the Wizards but could still find himself outside of the rotation.

Lanier recorded 23 minutes in Sunday's 120-109 G League loss to the Memphis Hustle before being recalled, putting up seven points (3-10 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), a rebound and an assist. He will likely continue to split time between the two clubs but is not expected to play much with the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Lanier hasn't been a regular participant for the NBA team this season, but he has been quite productive lately with the Cruise, tallying more than 17 points in five of his last six G League matchups. Lanier could continue to see minutes off the bench for the Pistons while getting most of his playing time in the lower-level league for the rest of the season.

EDGE Analysis

Lanier has spent time with both the Pistons and its G League affiliate. He has filled in as an injury replacement in the rotation while players like Ausar Thompson and Tobias Harris were sidelined dealing with respective injuries. Since Detroit looks to be healthy right now, Lanier will likely not see significant minutes on the court, if any at all.

EDGE Analysis

Lanier has continued to play for both the NBA and G League squads since December, although he's usually a second-unit option for the Pistons. In his 16 NBA regular-season games, the guard is currently averaging 0.7 points, 0.2 rebounds and 0.2 assists in 9.6 minutes per contest.

EDGE Analysis

Lanier has returned to the Pistons following another period on assignment with the G League affiliate, for which he scored 25 points and three rebounds during a 44-minute appearance Saturday. Lanier has played a minor role at the NBA level, especially over the last couple of months, logging just nine minutes of play since Nov. 18.

EDGE Analysis

Lanier is fresh off a 40-point outing Wednesday against the Cleveland Charge, and he'll join the NBA squad to get some work in over the weekend. He's appeared in one game for the Pistons since Nov. 22, logging one steal in four minutes.

Lanier chipped in zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one steal across four minutes during Saturday's 124-112 win over the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis

Lanier saw the court for the first time in the past eight games, logging four minutes, all of which came during garbage time. He has been in and out of the rotation thus far this season, with his playing time typically dependent on the health of others. Given he can't be trusted to play consistent minutes, there is no reason to consider him outside of very deep fantasy leagues.
