Rejoins parent club
Detroit recalled Lanier from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Wednesday.
Analysis
Lanier should be available off the bench for the Pistons' next game Thursday in Washington, but unless star guard Cade Cunningham (back) ends up sitting out that game, the rookie second-round pick isn't expected to be included in head coach J.B. Bickerstaff's rotation.

Summoned from G League
The Pistons recalled Lanier from the G League's Motor City Cruise on Thursday.
Analysis
After a brief stint in the G League, Lanier will rejoin the parent club ahead of Thursday's game against the 76ers. He'll provide the Pistons with some more depth on the wing with Ausar Thompson (ankle) sitting out and Caris LeVert (wrist) listed as doubtful, though Lanier was limited to just six garbage-time minutes in Detroit's blowout win over the Nets on Tuesday, when both Thompson and LeVert were sidelined.
