Pistons' Isaiah Stewart suspended 7 games for brawl, due back March 3

Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart received a seven-game NBA suspension for his aggressive involvement in Monday's altercation with Charlotte, including leaving the bench and fighting Miles Bridges. This is his fifth suspension in his six-year career, with the league citing his 'repeated history of unsportsmanlike acts.' Stewart will be eligible to return on March 3 against the Cavaliers, missing games against the Raptors, Bulls, Spurs, Thunder, Cavs, and Magic. His absence, alongside Jalen Duren's two-game suspension, impacts the team's depth, potentially boosting Paul Reed's value. Stewart's suspension also means he will not play enough games to be in contention for All-Defense honors.
