Thompson (conditioning) is doubtful for Thursday's game against the Hornets. A doubtful tag is a step in the right direction as Thompson continues to progress toward a return. He also just returned from a G League assignment in which he received some extra practice reps. Assuming Thompson is held out Thursday, he could return as soon as Saturday's game against Orlando. The second-year forward has been cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel, and coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Wednesday that the team doesn't want to play Thompson in a game until he's completely comfortable. The second-year wing hasn't been playing 5-on-5 and has been limited in his workouts since March, per Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press.

Ausar Thompson Latest News
Doubtful for Thursday
Thompson (conditioning) is doubtful for Thursday's game against the Hornets. A doubtful tag is a step in the right direction as Thompson continues to progress toward a return. He also just returned from a G League assignment in which he received some extra practice reps. Assuming Thompson is held out Thursday, he could return as soon as Saturday's game against Orlando. The second-year forward has been cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel, and coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Wednesday that the team doesn't want to play Thompson in a game until he's completely comfortable. The second-year wing hasn't been playing 5-on-5 and has been limited in his workouts since March, per Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press.
Recalled to NBA
Detroit recalled Thompson (conditioning) from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Tuesday. Thompson joined the Cruise on Tuesday to get in some practice work, and he's now back with the Pistons ahead of Thursday's game against the Hornets. The second-year forward has been cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel, but it's unclear when he'll be ready to make his season debut. Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff said Wednesday that the team doesn't want to play Thompson in a game until he's completely comfortable. The second-year wing hasn't been playing 5-on-5 and has been limited in his workouts since March, per Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press.
Assigned to G League
Thompson (illness) was assigned to the Pistons' G League affiliate Tuesday. Thompson is seemingly nearing a return to game action and will join the Motor City Cruise to help regain his conditioning. The second-year forward has been cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel, though the club has decided to work him back to playing form slowly. Thompson's next chance to make his season debut will come Thursday against the Hornets.
Remains out indefinitely
Thompson has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Bulls due to return to competition reconditioning. Thompson has been cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel, but the Pistons remain cautious with the second-year forward as he regains his conditioning. He's yet to make his season debut, and his next chance to play will come Thursday in Charlotte.
Not playing Sunday
Thompson (illness) is out for Sunday's game against the Wizards. Thompson was already cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel, but the Pistons remain cautious with the second-year forward. He's yet to make his season debut, and his next chance to play will come in the second half of a back-to-back set against the Bulls on Monday.
Still out Friday
Thompson (conditioning) won't play in Friday's game versus the Raptors. Despite being cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel, Thomson will miss his 14th straight game to begin the 2024-25 campaign. However, Thompson's return to action should be soon as he ramps up his conditioning. His next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Washington.
Working on his conditioning
Thompson (illness) was cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel Monday, but he'll remain out for Tuesday's game against the Heat due to conditioning purposes. Coach JB Bickerstaff said Monday that Thompson hasn't been able to scrimmage 5-on-5 yet, so the second-year wing will likely need a week or two to get his feet under him before he's ready for game action. However, Bickerstaff applauded Thompson's work ethic and skill set, saying Thompson fits perfectly into what the Pistons are trying to do this season. When available to play, Thompson should handle a sizable role in the rotation but will likely have to come off the bench.
Cleared by NBA fitness panel
Thompson (illness) was cleared to play by the NBA's Fitness-To-Play panel Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. Thompson has been sidelined since March due to a blood clot issue, but after gaining clearance, he can now begin his ramp-up process, which includes participating in full-contact practices. He's hopeful to make his season debut in the near future, but an official return date hasn't been announced yet.
Remains out indefinitely
Thompson (illness/conditioning) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Lakers. The second-year wing's rookie season was cut short due to blood clots, and while there is optimism he'll suit up this year, it's unclear when that'll be. He has been limited to conditioning and individual drills at recent practices and is cleared to travel with the team -- encouraging steps. However, Thompson remains out indefinitely until he's given medical clearance by the NBA Players' Association.
