Kennard scored 30 points (8-13 FG, 6-9 3PT, 8-10 FT) to go along with three rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes off the bench during the Pistons' 119-110 win over the Pacers on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard ranked fourth in playing time for the Pistons in this contest, but deservedly so since he was firing in all cylinders all game long. Kennard can't be expected to score at this rate -- although he had previously registered 20-point games in the past -- and with this kind of efficiency, but he might have earned some extra minutes going forward. The Pistons take on the Hawks on Thursday.

Kennard (knee) will play and come off the bench Wednesday against the Pacers, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard was dealing with some right knee soreness, but he's shaken it off and will be good to go for the opener. Though he'll be coming off the bench, the absence of Blake Griffin (hamstring) could thrust Kennard into a larger role than expected.

Kennard (knee) will not play in Wednesday's preseason game against the Hornets, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard played 23 minutes in Tuesday's exhibition against the 76ers and emerged with right knee soreness, so he'll sit for the second half of the back-to-back set. At this point, the issue doesn't seem like anything that will jeopardize his status for the start of the regular season next week, though it will be something to monitor.

Kennard (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's preseason game against the Hornets, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard is dealing with some right knee soreness after playing 23 minutes in Tuesday's loss to Philadelphia, tallying 11 points (4-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists. With Detroit's regular-season opener one week away, it wouldn't be surprising if the Pistons decided to play it safe and keep Kennard out for the second half of their back-to-back set.

Kennard produced 19 points (6-8 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 124-117 preseason victory over the Mavericks.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard led the way for the Pistons despite coming off the bench. Along with Derrick Rose, Kennard looks as though he could head up the second unit. He does have a somewhat fantasy-friendly game and if he manages to carve out at least 28 minutes, he is worth a look with a late pick.

Kennard will come off the bench in Monday's Game 4 against the Bucks, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
After starting Games 2 and 3, Kennard will return to coming off the bench with Bruce Brown moving back into the starting five. Coach Dwane Casey is making the move to provide the second unit with a little more firepower, as Kennard has been one of the few bright spots for the Pistons this series. Through the first three games, he's averaging 16.3 points and 5.0 rebounds over 33.3 minutes per game.

Kennard produced 19 points (6-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 120-99 loss to Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard replaced Bruce Brown in the starting lineup Wednesday, emerging as the teams leading scorer with 19 points including four triples. Kennard has had an interesting backend to the season, flashing his fantasy upside on many occasions. He has also struggled mightily at times and the inconsistent playing time has certainly been a source of frustration. Given his performance, it would seem likely Kennard starts again Saturday but the Pistons are going to need a lot more from their starters as a unit if they are to push the Bucks.

Kennard is slated to start Wednesday's game against Milwaukee, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard will purportedly start in place of Bruce Brown for Wednesday's game. The Pistons, sans star Blake Griffin, are looking to change it up after a 35-point thrashing in game one on Sunday and implementing Kennard, who led the charge with 21 points, should help.

Kennard totaled 21 points (8-14 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 28 minutes in the Pistons' loss to the Bucks on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard led his team in scoring on Sunday and while he didn't start, he played the most minutes at power forward with Blake Griffin (knee) out. Kennard has now averaged 21.0 points over his last three games while draining 13-22 three point attempts.

Kennard finished with 27 points (9-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes in the Pistons' win over the Knicks on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard played a solid 25 minutes off the bench on Wednesday, totaling his second-highest point total of the season. He knocked down four triples, and he's now gone 9-17 on threes in his last two games. He'll continue to get increased play time as long as Blake Griffin (knee) is out.
