Sasser ended Saturday's 112-86 win over the Hornets with one rebound and one assist across two minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Sasser failed to score for the third time in four games since returning from injury, continuing to serve as nothing more than a depth piece for the Pistons. Even when playing a meaningful role, Sasser has yet to flash any real upside, meaning his value for this season is likely to be nonexistent.

Sasser (hip) tallied zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and two assists while playing the final 4:13 of Saturday's 124-112 win over the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Cleared to make his season debut after missing the Pistons' first 23 games due to a right hip impingement, Sasser wasn't part of the rotation Saturday but was able to get into the contest in garbage time after Detroit built up a 25-point advantage. Cade Cunningham, Duncan Robinson, Caris LeVert and Jaden Ivey appear to be Detroit's top four guards when the team is at full strength, but Sasser could end up getting a look in the rotation if any of those players are out for a given game. Sasser checked into Saturday's contest slightly before second-year guard Daniss Jenkins, who first got off the bench with 3:34 remaining in the fourth quarter.

Sasser (hip) is available for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Sasser will be available to make his regular-season debut after missing time due to a right hip impingement. The 25-year-old guard will likely face heavy restrictions as he's eased back into action, though he isn't guaranteed to see significant minutes regardless.

Sasser (hip) is probable for Saturday's game versus the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis

Sasser (hip) is questionable to play Friday against the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Sasser has yet to suit up for the Pistons this season as he's been recovering from a right hip impingement, but he recently got in a game with Detroit's G League affiliate, so he's clearly on the cusp of making his regular-season debut. Check back for another update closer to Friday's tip.

Detroit assigned Sasser (hip) to the G League's Motor City Cruise on Monday.

Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Monday that Sasser (hip) is trending in the right direction and has progressed to 3-on-3 work, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sasser has yet to make his regular-season debut due to a lingering right hip issue, though he's seemingly nearing a return to the court. The 25-year-old guard has been getting practice reps in with the Pistons' G League affiliate, the Motor City Cruise, though he'll need to be cleared for 5-on-5 work before returning to game action with Detroit. He can still be considered week-to-week until the Pistons provide another update on his rehab.

The Pistons recalled Sasser from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Saturday and assigned him back to the G League on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Sasser will presumably join Motor City for practice again as he works his way back from a right hip impingement. While it's an encouraging sign that the 25-year-old guard is getting reps in, he still doesn't have a concrete timetable for his return to game action.
