Jalen Duren Ruled Out for Friday's Game with Right Knee Soreness

Jalen Duren has been ruled out for Friday's game against the New York Knicks due to right knee soreness. The center exited Thursday's game against the Wizards early with the injury. This will be his first missed game since January 10. Initially listed as questionable, the Pistons have decided to sideline him for the second leg of their back-to-back set. In Duren's absence, Isaiah Stewart is expected to be the top candidate to start at center, with Ronald Holland and Paul Reed also potentially seeing increased minutes.
