Career History

Detroit Pistons 2025-Present (1 season)

Chaz Lanier: Breaking News

Barely visible in win

Lanier posted two points (1-1 FG) over six minutes during Sunday's 133-121 win over the Pacers. Lanier once again played a limited role, having exceeded 16 minutes on only four occasions this season. Given he has seen the floor only 34 times thus far, it's safe to assume that he won't be a key piece for the Pistons heading into the playoffs.

Returning to parent team

Detroit recalled Lanier from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Saturday. Lanier suited up for Motor City in Friday's 123-116 loss to the Osceola Magic in the Eastern Conference Semifinals of the G League playoffs, finishing with 27 points (8-13 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and four assists in 38 minutes. With the Cruise's campaign coming to an end with the loss, Lanier will rejoin the Pistons for the remainder of the regular season and playoffs. Though Lanier has been formally recalled, it's unclear if he'll arrive in Philadelphia in time for the Pistons' game Saturday versus the 76ers. Detroit is officially listing him as questionable for the contest.

Returns from G League

The Pistons recalled Lanier from the G League's Motor City Cruise ahead of Thursday's game against the Pelicans. Detroit is listing Cade Cunningham (lung) and Caris LeVert (knee) out for Thursday's contest, but Lanier may need Tobias Harris (hip) -- who is listed as questionable -- to sit out against the Pelicans in order to crack the rotation. The rookie second-round pick is averaging just 7.9 minutes in 26 games at the NBA level this season, with many of those appearances coming in garbage-time situations.
