Updating a previous report, Thornton will not be available to play in Sunday's game against the Pelicans, Keith Langlois of Pistons.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Both Thornton and Donatas Motiejunas went through their physicals with the Pistons, but because they're still being evaluated, neither have been cleared to join the team. They'll miss Sunday's game against the Pelicans, but should have a chance at making there debut Monday against the Cavaliers.
