Stuckey limited by knee: Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey was back on the floor on Thursday against Charlotte, after leaving Monday’s game against the Magic with a knee injury. Stuckey played just 27 minutes on Thursday, however the injury was not the reason for it, as he made it through the game unscathed. Rather, his minutes were limited because the Pistons led the game by a big margin for most of the way. Stuckey did appear limited by the injury, however as he shot just 2 of 7 from the field for nine points, however he did have seven assists, as the Pistons defeated the Bobcats, 109-85.

Fantasy Analysis
The Pistons did not need much from Stuckey on this night, and he did not give them much. Fantasy owners would certainly like that to change however, so you will want to keep an eye on his production to see if he can figure things out. Stuckey has played well when healthy recently, so if he can get back to 100 percent, Fantasy owners should consider him a viable starting option in all Fantasy formats moving forward.

With the Pistons in flux, Rodney Stuckey is one of many question marks entering the 2011-12 season in Detroit. Not only will there be a new coaching staff in place to adjust to, but Stuckey will have to shift to shooting guard to accommodate rookie Brandon Knight at the point. Stuckey has proven very productive when provided the opportunity of significant playing time. Uninhibited, Stuckey could be relied upon for mid-teens scoring, nearly three rebounds per game and just over a steal per contest. However, the possibility exists that his production could be reduced with a move from the point during the upcoming season. That uncertainty makes him a very risky pick as a starting option. Fantasy owners should target him in the middle rounds of most 2011-12 drafts. (Updated 12/19/11)
