Jalen Duren Probable for Pistons’ Game with Kings on December 26th Despite Ankle Issue

Jalen Duren, center for the Detroit Pistons, is dealing with a left ankle sprain. Despite this injury, he is likely to play in the upcoming game against the Sacramento Kings on December 26th. This news comes after Duren has been managing a wrist issue earlier in the season.

What It Means

This probable status means Jalen Duren might be available to help his team against the Kings. His performance this season includes averages of 9 points and 9.2 rebounds per game. He has shown strong rebounding skills, finishing in the top five among players at his position multiple times this season.

If Duren plays, it will strengthen the Pistons’ lineup as they face the Kings. In case he needs rest or aggravates his injury, Isaiah Stewart and Paul Reed are potential replacements at center. Stewart averages 6 points per game while Reed contributes around 5.1 points per game.
