The Detroit Pistons have designated Duncan Robinson, Caris LeVert and Kevin Huerter as questionable for Wednesday’s Game 5 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, according to the team’s latest injury report.
Robinson, the starting shooting guard and Detroit’s primary perimeter option, is dealing with low-back soreness. The veteran attempted only two shots and scored four points in 29 minutes during Monday’s Game 4, when Cleveland evened the best-of-seven series at 2-2. Robinson had averaged 17.0 points through the first three contests, connecting on 14 three-pointers across that span.
Reserve swingman LeVert is listed with a right heel contusion. Although he entered Game 4 under the same designation, the eighth-year guard provided a spark off the bench, posting a team-high 24 points along with four rebounds and three assists in 31 minutes.
Huerter remains sidelined by a left adductor strain. The sharpshooter has missed Detroit’s last seven postseason outings after appearing in the first four games of the opening-round series against Orlando.
Game 5 will be played Wednesday at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit.
