Kemba's was classified as a "left heel contusion" before they let him back on the court, rather than ankle.

Both look like minor injuries, I'm sure they're just being cautious.

kemba and lamb should rest the rest of pressure season. No need to risk more injuries

Im sure they want to keep the momentum going but at some point it's not worth it when you already lost one of the starters for the whole season.

Don't know about you guys but I'm ready for the regular season now!

Apparently you can stream it live from the Pistons website, not televised.

Do you think the starters are going to get a lot of run tonight? Or time to rest the starters and see what the end of the bench can do?

Clifford has seemed to hint that he'll use these last two preseason games to narrow down his rotations.

That being said, we play Detroit tonight and Indiana tomorrow. I don't see any way he plays his starters heavy minutes in back to back games in the preseason. I figure he'll use tonight as a dress rehearsal, with starters playing heavy minutes. Then tomorrow we will see some of the starters out.

Walker joins Jeremy Lamb (right ankle sprain) and MKG (right shoulder surgery) as players out tonight. #CHAvsDET

Rest our entire starting five IMO. Preseason doesn't mean **** and we can't afford to lose any more rotation players.

If they keep the rest of the starters and insert Lin into Kemba's place, this will be the longest starting line up this team could have, right?

Hey hornet fans. Can we Piston fans expect to see tank in action tonight? I haven't been able to catch a hornets game yet to see who we passed on so I would love to see him play.

Excellent thanks. Preseason doesn't mean much(save for the weirdos who lose thier minds when thier team loses)except to see how new players fit in, are players in good shape, and most importantly, how to the rookies look?

Best time for a sports fan. No pressure games while seeing all the new guys play.
