Fontecchio was traded to the Heat on Tuesday in a sign-and-trade deal that sent Duncan Robinson to the Pistons, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Pistons sent Fontecchio to the Heat to complete their three-year, $48 million signing of Duncan Robinson. Fontecchio served as a reserve forward for Detroit in 2024-25, averaging 5.9 points and 2.9 rebounds across 16.5 minutes per game in 75 regular-season appearances. The 29-year-old will likely have to compete for playing time off the Heat's bench with Jaime Jaquez, Nikola Jovic, Kyle Anderson and Haywood Highsmith.

Fontecchio ended Wednesday's 119-103 loss to Oklahoma City with six points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one assist and one block across 12 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Fontecchio logged just 12 minutes and made only one field goal, with most of his points coming from the free-throw line in Wednesday's loss. The 29-year-old went off for 23 points in New Orleans on March 17 but has had a minimal impact since. Over his past seven games, Fontecchio has averaged 4.0 points on 32.3 percent shooting in 16.6 minutes per game. Even with Cade Cunningham (calf), Tobias Harris (Achilles) and Isaiah Stewart (suspension) unavailable recently, Fontecchio has failed to make an impact.

Fontecchio closed Monday's 127-81 victory over the Pelicans with 23 points (9-10 FG, 5-5 3Pt), seven rebounds and one steal over 22 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Fontecchio logged a season-high 23 points in an extremely efficient performance, marking his first 20-plus-point outing on the season. Additionally, the 29-year-old led the second unit in points, finishing as the club's second-leading scorer behind Cade Cunningham (24 points). Fontecchio has seen a decrease in playing time of late, and he has recorded only five outings with at least 20 minutes since Dec. 28. Moreover, he has reached the 20-minute mark just two times since Jan. 11.

Fontecchio chipped in two points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 15 minutes during Wednesday's 123-115 loss to the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Fontecchio continues to play limited minutes off the bench, scoring no more than two points for the fourth time in the past six games. Fontecchio has struggled to keep up with the Pistons taking some massive steps forward this season. At this point, he is nothing more than a secondary scoring option who struggles for consistency.

Fontecchio (finger) is available for Friday's game against Denver, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fontecchio has missed the Pistons' last two games due to a dislocated finger, but he has been given the green light to return Friday. He has averaged 5.1 points, 3.8 rebounds and 0.8 assists over 15.6 minutes per game in February.

Fontecchio (finger) has been listed as probable for Friday's game against the Nuggets.

EDGE Analysis

After missing the last two games for the Pistons, Fontecchio appears to be on track to return to the floor for Detroit in Friday's game against Denver. The 28-year-old forward is averaging a career-low 6.1 points to go along with 3.1 rebounds per game, shooting 38.1 percent from the field.

Fontecchio (finger) will not play Wednesday versus Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Fontecchio will miss his second game in a row due to a dislocated finger and remains day-to-day. Wings Ausar Thompson, Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway will all be candidates to receive slight bumps in playing time with Fontecchio sidelined.

Fontecchio (finger) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

Fontecchio dislocated his right finger in Sunday's win over Atlanta, and he's in danger of missing his second game in a row with the injury. If the sharpshooter remains sidelined against Boston, some additional minutes would be freed up for Isaiah Stewart and Ron Holland in the second unit.

Fontecchio (finger) is out for Monday's game against the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

After dislocating his right finger in Sunday's win over the Hawks, Fontecchio will need to miss at least one game due to the injury. His next opportunity to take the floor arrives Wednesday against the Celtics. Fontecchio's absence should allow Isaiah Stewart and Ron Holland to pick up a few extra minutes off the bench.

Fontecchio is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Clippers due to a right finger dislocation.

EDGE Analysis

Fontecchio was unable to return to Sunday's 148-143 win over the Hawks after suffering what the Pistons labeled as a right hand injury in the second quarter. He was diagnosed with a dislocated finger following the contest, and if the issue provides any complications with his shooting or passing, Fontecchio could miss his first game since Jan. 4. If Fontecchio ends up sitting Monday, the Pistons could open up a spot in the rotation for Lindy Waters or Marcus Sasser.
