Ivey is on track to return after missing Detroit's last two games. If he can play, Ausar Thompson is the most likely player to be headed to the bench, which limits his fantasy value in standard leagues.
Ivey (knee) is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus the Suns.
Beasley's percentages weren't good, but the raw numbers were. With Jaden Ivey (knee) sidelined, the veteran guard played 35 minutes despite coming off the bench, providing solid points and 3-point production. The four assists Beasley dished out were a solid bonus for fantasy managers who have him rostered. A top 100 player in 9-cat formats over the past two weeks, Beasley should be rostered in deep leagues (30% Yahoo as of Thursday night) until he cools off.
Harris is back in the lineup after sitting out Monday's win over the Heat with a sprained thumb. However, it will be Malik Beasley who heads to the bench. Thompson will make another start, this time filling the void left by Jaden Ivey (knee).
After being a late scratch for Monday's win over the Heat, Ivey will remain sidelined on Thursday. Malik Beasley should get another start and is worth streaming whenever the Pistons are without Ivey or Cade Cunningham.
