Keith Langlois: FINAL: Pistons 115, Warriors 101 Pistons force season-best 27 turnovers for 32 points. They scored 74 in the paint. Record goes to 51-19 with 12 to go. Ausar Thompson career-best 7 steals. Daniss Jenkins 22/7/8.
Omari Sankofa II: Ausar on LeVert's playmaking: "He always says he’s the best passer on the team. I don’t know about that one, because I’m standing here."
Omari Sankofa II: JB Bickerstaff said that Ausar Thompson was on a minutes restriction. Played 24 minutes
Omari Sankofa II: JB Bickerstaff on how they missed Ausar Thompson: "Just how disruptive he can be and what he turns that into. When he’s out there defensively it’s point of attack defense where he’s picking ballhandlers up … it’s picking up elite scorers some nights, and then it’s blocked shots, deflections."
Omari Sankofa II: Ausar Thompson (right ankle sprain) is probable to play vs the Raptors tomorrow after missing five games. Isaiah Stewart (left calf strain) is out. Tobias Harris isn't listed after missing one game, which means he's returning.

Omari Sankofa II: Ausar Thompson (right ankle sprain) will miss his fourth straight game tomorrow vs the Sixers. Caris LeVert (left wrist sprain) is doubtful. Chaz Lanier (G League Assignment) is questionable. Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, Paul George and Kelly Oubre are all out for Philly.
Ausar Thompson's ankle should have him out around a week, sources tell ESPN, but the Pistons want to be sure he's OK before allowing him to play. He's their most versatile defender, and his perimeter defense in particular was sorely missing in their loss to Miami on Sunday. For a team that creates offense with its defense, any small slippage shows exponentially, and that's where the Pistons are. -- Vincent Goodwill
Ira Winderman: Cade Cunningham (left quad contusion) is probable for the Pistons tonight after sitting out last night. Ausar Thompson (right ankle sprain) and Caris LeVert (left wrist sprain) both out for Detroit.

Omari Sankofa II: JB said Ausar is likely to miss some time with his right ankle sprain. Sounds like he’ll definitely miss tomorrow’s game in Miami at the very least. Cade is more day-to-day.
Ausar Thompson exited the Pistons’ 121–106 defeat to the Spurs during the opening quarter after suffering a sprained ankle. Following the game, Detroit did not provide any new information regarding the severity of the injury or a potential recovery timeline. Head coach J.B.
