Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: Out through All-Star break

Caldwell-Pope (groin) will be held out until after the All-Star break as he deals with a muscle strain, David Mayo of MLive.com reports.

Analysis:

Caldwell-Pope suffered the injury Wednesday against Boston and also missed Thursday's game against the Knicks as a result. The Pistons' first post-break game comes February 19 in Washington, which gives Caldwell-Pope a solid two weeks to recover. Until then, look for Stanley Johnson to receive starter minutes in Caldwell-Pope's place.
