#Pistons coach Dwane Casey says Reggie Jackson (back) will likely be re-evaluated for a potential return after Christmas. Has been out since the the first two games of the season. He’s been doing non-contract stuff for several weeks.

Absent from the prosecution for several weeks, his injury is said to have worsened in particular after a strong reaction to stress in early November. In his last year of contract (unrestricted), the 29-year-old will have to quickly make up for lost time and regain the confidence of his coach after a mixed 2018-2019 season (15.4 points, 2.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists 42.1% on shots).
