Hardaway headed to the locker room during Friday's game against the Mavericks due to an apparent ankle injury, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hardaway went down in front of the Mavs' bench after a collision with P.J. Washington, and he was helped to the locker room while looking in severe pain. If he doesn't return, then Malik Beasley could be in line to see more minutes off the bench.

Hardaway closed Tuesday's 123-103 win over the Wizards with 11 points (3-8 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals over 23 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Hardaway continues to start for the Pistons, providing them with a somewhat consistent perimeter threat. Despite starting, his production has been largely underwhelming, having scored more than 15 points only once in the past 15 games. Detroit is positioned to make a run at the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference, meaning Hardaway's role should stick moving forward.

EDGE Analysis

The Pistons were without Tobias Harris (personal) and Isaiah Stewart (back) on Monday, allowing Hardaway to soak up a bit more usage.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Hardaway's struggles continued despite the victory, as he scored single-digit points for the fourth straight game and the eighth time in the past 10. Although he remains in the starting lineup, Hardaway has been mediocre from a production standpoint, averaging just 10.5 points and 2.1 three-pointers in 28.4 minutes per game this season.

EDGE Analysis

Hardaway once again provided a boost to Detroit offensively, leading all players in threes made while finishing as one of two players with 20 or more points in a losing effort.

Hardaway provided seven points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 27 minutes during Monday's 132-130 loss to the Hawks.

EDGE Analysis

Hardaway continues to deliver passive performances, having now scored in single digits in five of the past seven games. After a slow start to the season, he worked his way into form during the month of January. Although he has remained in the starting lineup, he continues to be outplayed by Malik Beasley. As a result, Hardaway's playing time does not always reflect that of a typical starter.

EDGE Analysis

Hardaway paced Detroit from three in Thursday's contest, leading all Pistons in scoring and threes made while also leading all players in shots made from the free-throw line in an offensive showcase.

Hardaway notched 27 points (9-13 FG, 7-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two steals over 32 minutes during Saturday's 123-114 victory over the Raptors.

EDGE Analysis

Hardaway returned to the hardwood following a one-game absence, and the veteran performed well in his return. He missed just one of his eight three-point attempts and also established a new season-high scoring mark in this win. Hardaway has scored in double digits in five of his six January outings while going 19-for-39 from three-point range in that span.
