Evan Fournier likely to finish the season in Detroit
All signs, league sources say, point to Evan Fournier staying put in Detroit for the rest of the season. Yet it remains to be seen if Marcus Morris will generate sufficient external interest this week that compels him to seek his release from San Antonio.

After he was relegated to a Knicks bench role then traded to the Detroit Pistons, Evan Fournier wants to prove to the NBA he’s still got it.
“Bro I’m 31, I’m not 40. I’m in my best years, literally.”

Evan Fournier is back at The Garden.
Fournier has made two 3s in each of his first 4 games with the Detroit Pistons. He has scored 13, 10, 10 and 13 points on a losing Pistons team since the trade after being cut out of the rotation in New York. pic.twitter.com/03Xh6N61Hd – 11:08 AM

Fournier defending Isaac is not a good idea.
The latter had a putback dunk and just cut baseline for an easy dunk – 9:45 PM

Detroit got a lot of production from its second unit in that initial stretch. Flynn has 7. Fournier has 6. Troy Brown Jr. had a timely 3. – 8:49 PM

Fournier can still shoot, turns out. Hit three 3’s on Thursday and just made his first attempt tonight right after checking in – 8:29 PM

I always suspected Evan Fournier and Tim Hardaway Jr. were equivalent players, but as they’ve aged, that hasn’t borne out pic.twitter.com/Ak3MiCXTjl – 7:04 PM

Kristian Winfield: Evan Fournier says he was in the steam room without his phone when Josh Hart “stormed in like Yo Ev!” Fournier says he was hoping to be traded. That’s how he found out the deal with the Pistons happened. -via Twitter @Krisplashed / February 26, 2024
