Ivey notched seven points (2-5 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one assist in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 112-104 win over the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Ivey scored single digits for the fifth time in the past six games, continuing his underwhelming campaign. After his start to the season was delayed by a month due to injury, the hope was that Ivey would be able to carve out a starter-level role. However, it looks as though he could be limited to bench minutes, averaging just 19.2 minutes per game in 14 appearances over the past month.

Ivey will come off the bench for Thursday's game against the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Cade Cunningham (wrist) is back after a two-game stint on the sidelines, which will result in Ivey's return to the second unit. Ivey has been quiet this season, owning averages of 8.3 points, 1.8 assists and 1.0 three-pointers per game.

Ivey accumulated eight points (4-12 FG, 0-5 3Pt) and three rebounds across 20 minutes during Saturday's 98-92 loss to the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Ivey moved into the starting lineup after Cade Cunningham was ruled out with a wrist injury. While this was a great opportunity for Ivey, he came up well short of what managers were hoping for. Given what we have seen from him thus far, and the fact that he is typically limited to minutes in the teens, Ivey can be ignored in standard leagues at this point.

Ivey is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Bulls, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Cade Cunningham (wrist) unavailable, Ivey will draw his first start of the season and he'll be joined in the first unit by Duncan Robinson, Ausar Thompson, Paul Reed and Isaiah Stewart. Ivey has been hit-or-miss this season, but he'll get some time to shine in a starting role against a weak defensive team, making him an intriguing target in daily fantasy leagues.

Ivey notched 16 points (6-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 22 minutes during Monday's 121-90 victory over New York.

EDGE Analysis

Ivey put up his most points of the season in Monday's win over the Knicks. The 23-year-old guard has only played 20 or more minutes in four games this season since returning on Nov. 22. For the season, he's averaging 8.4 points, 2.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 threes in 16.5 minutes per game.

Ivey supplied seven points (3-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt), two rebounds and two blocks over 19 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 win over the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Ivey continues to be used sparingly by Detroit, and that may not change with so much competition for touches. Over his last seven outings, he's seeing 19.0 minutes per game with 8.4 points, 2.3 assists, 1.6 rebounds, 0.6 steals and 1.4 three-pointers.

Ivey amassed 11 points (2-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Sunday's 112-99 loss to the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Although Ivey shot only 20 percent from the floor, he finished as the team's third-highest scorer in the loss. Ivey faces an uphill battle for minutes, as Duncan Robinson is playing well enough to hang onto the starting role, a seat Ivey filled for 30 games last season before suffering a broken fibula. He shows no ill effects from the injury, but the Pistons have kept his usage down with an average of 15.7 minutes over 17 games played.

Ivey had 11 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one assist and two steals in 18 minutes during Monday's 110-102 win over the Trail Blazers.

EDGE Analysis

With the Pistons rolling, there isn't much room for Ivey these days. Over his last five appearances, he's averaging 8.8 points, 2.2 assists, 1.2 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 17.1 minutes per contest.

Ivey produced 10 points (4-11 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals in 21 minutes during Monday's 112-105 win over the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

Ivey has scored exactly 10 points in his last three games and has been one of the more important players off the bench for Detroit since returning from his knee injury. In 11 games, Ivey averages 8.0 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.5 steals, 0.1 blocks and 1.0 threes across 14.9 minutes. However, his 21 minutes Monday was a season-high mark and may be a sign of things to come for the guard, who averaged at least 29 minutes a night in each of his first three seasons in the NBA.

Ivey supplied 15 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block over 19 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 113-109 loss to the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis

The fourth-year guard didn't make his season debut until Nov. 22 after undergoing knee surgery just before the start of the campaign, and Wednesday's 15 points and six dimes were his best efforts in those categories in seven games since rejoining the lineup. Ivey has yet to play more than 20 minutes in a contest as he gets eased back in, but this performance might be a good sign he's ready to take on a bigger workload as the floor general for Detroit's second unit.
