DETROIT (AP) -- Pistons guard Luke Kennard has an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder and he is expected to miss at least two weeks.

Kennard was injured in Thursday night's win over Cleveland when a screen was set on him in the first half. An MRI showed the injury.

The Pistons took Kennard in the first round of the 2017 draft out of Duke. He averaged 7.6 points per game as a rookie.

Detroit is 4-0 for the first time since the 2008-09 season. The Pistons host Boston on Saturday night.
