"The Pistons gained a big man and lost another. Ben Wallace said he would give his sore left ankle a test against Phoenix after missing six games with the injury.

"I'll give it a go in the first quarter and see how it feels," said Wallace

Meanwhile, Charlie Villanueva said he would have X-rays on his right ankle after landing on Greg Monroe's foot in the first quarter of Friday's loss to New Jersey.

Villanueva's injury occurred when he came down with a rebound, landed on Monroe, delivered an outlet pass and started experiencing pain.

He played just 10 minutes in the game, going scoreless and taking just three shots."
