The bad news keeps coming for Pistons forward Jon Leuer.

After missing 74 games last season because of various foot injuries, Leuer was looking for a healthy summer to springboard into a bounce-back season.

So much for that.

The Pistons announced Thursday that Leuer suffered a knee injury during offseason workouts this week and had surgery Wednesday in New York to repair a right medial meniscus issue. A timetable for his return is uncertain.

It’s a setback for Leuer, who was projected to see significant time as a backup power forward and center next season.
