Jennings will be re-evaluated after a three-week immobilization period.

With the Pistons’ first regular season game coming up on Oct. 30 and  Rodney Stuckey out with a broken right thumb, the team could play Chauncey Billups, Will Bynum or rookie Peyton Siva at point guard.

The Pistons signed Jennings to a three-year, $24 million contract this offseason.

Jennings, 24, averaged 17.5 points, 6.5 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.56 steals per game last season.
