The Detroit Pistons may be without Cade Cunningham when they host the Washington Wizards on Thursday, Feb. 5.
Cunningham is listed as "questionable" due to right wrist injury management, according to the team's Wednesday evening injury report. He missed two games with a right wrist contusion in January, and the Pistons are being cautious with Thursday's game being the first of a back-to-back. They will stay home on Friday to host the New York Knicks.
Tobias Harris (left knee soreness) and Kevin Huerter (trade pending) are also questionable against the Wizards. Dario Saric (trade pending) is out.

On the Wizards' side, Trae Young (right knee MCL contusion, quad strain), Tre Johnson (left ankle sprain), Cam Whitmore (right shoulder deep vein thrombosis), Khris Middleton, Malaki Branham, AJ Johnson and Marvin Bagley III (not with team) are all out. Middleton, Bagley, Branham and Johnson were all traded to the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday in a deal that brought back Anthony Davis, who also isn't expected to play Thursday.
It will be the Pistons' first game since trading Jaden Ivey to the Chicago Bulls, receiving Huerter and Saric in return. More moves could take place before the trade deadline arrives at 3 p.m. on Thursday.
The Pistons improved to 37-12 overall after defeating the Denver Nuggets at home on Tuesday. The victory kept the Pistons 5½ games up in the Eastern Conference on the New York Knicks and Boston Celtics and eight games up in the Central Division on the Cleveland Cavaliers.
