Jalen Duren is all set to play this Wednesday for the Detroit Pistons.

Facing the visiting Atlanta Hawks, the star big man was announced active by Detroit amid knee issues.

Duren was suddenly added to the Pistons' injury report due to his knee soreness, but the Pistons are giving him a green light to play. As such, backup big man Paul Reed will be there to help him carry the Pistons' frontcourt.

The first-time All-Star in Duren is delivering a sensational season, averaging a career-best 19.2 points and 10.5 rebounds while shooting over 64 percent from the field in 61 games.

With Cade Cunningham still recovering from his collapsed lung, the East-leading Pistons will rely on Duren for the remainder of the season.
