Indiana Pacers forward Danny Granger is expected to make his season debut Saturday night against the Detroit Pistons, according to the Indianapolis Star.

Granger has been out all season with a knee injury.

The Pacers have played well without Granger. They are 34-21, which is the second-best record in the Eastern Conference. Their defense is ranked at the top of the NBA, but Granger will help Indiana's struggling offense, which ranks 21st.

He led the team in scoring at 18.7 points per game last season.
